The address is automatically rotated and printed according to the envelope's direction by specifying with the printer driver properly.

Important

  • Printing of envelopes from the operation panel is not supported.
  • Do not use the following envelopes. They could jam in the machine or cause the machine to malfunction.

    • Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface
    • Envelopes with a double flap
    • Envelopes whose gummed flaps are already moistened and adhesive
  1. Prepare envelopes.

    • Press down on all four corners and edges of the envelopes to flatten them.

    • If the envelopes are curled, hold the opposite corners and gently twist them in the opposite direction.

    • If the corner of the envelope flap is folded, flatten it.
    • Use a pen to press the leading edge in the inserting direction flat and sharpen the crease.

      The figures above show a side view of the leading edge of the envelope.

    Important

    • The envelopes may jam in the machine if they are not flat or the edges are not aligned. Make sure that no curl or puff exceeds 0.1 inch (3 mm).
  2. Pull out the cassette from the machine.

  3. Slide the paper guide (A) in front and (B) on the right to open the guides.

  4. Load the envelopes WITH THE PRINT SIDE FACING DOWN, and place them in the center of the cassette.

    The folded flap of the envelope will be faced up as shown in the figure below (C).

    Up to 10 envelopes can be loaded at once.

    Note

    • Align the envelope stack with the edge of the cassette as shown in the figure below.

      If the envelopes are in contact with the protrusion (E), the envelopes may not be fed properly.

  5. Align the paper guide (A) in front with the envelopes.

  6. Slide the paper guide (B) on the right to align the right and left guides with sides of the envelopes.

    Do not slide the paper guides too hard against the envelopes. The envelopes may not be fed properly.

    Note

    • Do not load envelopes higher than the load limit mark (F).
    • Keep the envelope stack height below the tabs (G) of the paper guides.

    Push the cassette into the machine until it stops.

    After inserting the cassette into the machine, the paper information registration screen for the cassette is displayed on the touch screen.
