Content Id: 8200399700


Solution

You can print on European DL and US Comm. Env. #10-sized envelopes.

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

Caution

You cannot use the following envelopes.

- Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface

- Envelopes with a double flap (or sticker flaps)

- Envelopes whose gummed flaps are already moistened and adhesive

Caution

You cannot load envelopes in the Front Tray. Load them in the Rear Tray.

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.
