Preparations and Orientation for Loading Envelopes

As envelopes have a different shape and thickness from regular paper, preparations must be made before loading envelopes.
Envelopes can be printed only on the front side (non-glued side). When loading envelopes, pay attention to the orientation and which side is face up.
For the general procedure of loading envelopes, see the following:
When loading in the paper drawer Loading Paper in the Paper Drawer
When loading in the multi-purpose tray Loading Paper in the Multi-purpose Tray

Preparations before Loading Envelopes

Align the envelopes regardless of the number of envelopes to be loaded.
1
Close the flap of each envelope.
2
Flatten them to remove any air, and make sure the edges are pressed tightly.
3
Loosen any stiff corners of the envelopes, and flatten any curls.
4
Align the edges of the envelopes on a flat surface.
The envelopes are ready to be loaded.

Orientation of Envelopes (Multi-purpose Tray)

Insert the envelopes No. 10 (COM10), Monarch, ISO-C5, or DL from the short side with the front side (non-glued side) face up. Insert the envelope with the flap closed and on the right side.
