Do not forcefully move the paper guides of the paper drawer in the wrong direction. Doing so may damage the paper drawer.
Do not print on both sides of an envelope. Doing so may cause paper jams, dirty prints, or make the inside of the machine dirty.
If there is a temperature difference between the location where the envelopes are stored and the location where the envelopes are being printed, leave the envelopes in the printing location at room temperature before you use them.
Correctly match the <Envelope> in <Paper Size in Drawer 1> in <Drawer 1> (Paper Settings) with the size of the envelopes being loaded. Failure to do so may cause paper jams, dirty prints, or make the inside of the machine dirty.
If you are printing on envelopes, empty the output tray when up to 10 printed envelopes accumulate in the tray.
Envelopes should be stored in a place away from high-temperatures and humidity.
Do not load the following type of envelopes.Curled, creased, or folded envelopes
Very thick or thin envelopes
Damp or wet envelopes
Torn envelopes
Irregularly shaped envelopes
Envelopes with clasps or windows
Envelopes that have already been sealed
Envelopes with holes or perforations
Envelopes with specially coated surfaces
Envelopes made of surface treated colored paper
Envelopes that are self-sticking, which use ink, glue, or other substances that can melt, burn, vaporize, or emit smells under the heat of a fixing unit (approximately 200℃). Depending on the materials used for the seal, the glue may melt under the fixing unit's heat, sealing the envelopes.

Before Loading Envelopes
Follow the procedure below to prepare the envelopes before loading.
1
Close the flap of each envelope.
2
Flatten them to release any remaining air, and make sure that the edges are pressed tightly.
3
Loosen any stiff corners of the envelopes and flatten any curls.
4
Align the edges of the envelope on a flat surface.
If you use envelopes that have glue attached to their flaps, the glue may melt due to the heat and pressure of the fixing unit.
Do not print on the back side of the envelopes (the side with the flap).
If the envelopes become filled with air, flatten them by hand before loading them into the Paper Drawer 1.
