Hagaki (Cardstock)
Before loading Hagaki (Cardstock) into the multi purpose tray, fan them and align the edges. If the Hagaki
(Cardstock) paper is curled, straighten it before loading. Printing onto curled Hagaki (Cardstock) may cause jams.
Use unfolded Oufuku hagaki (Return postcard) (available at post offices). Some Hagaki (Cardstock) may still have
rough edges developed by a paper cutter on the back side. Remove any such rough edges by placing the Hagaki
(Cardstock) on a flat surface and rubbing the edges gently a few times with a ruler.
Envelopes
Envelopes should be fed from the MP tray with the print-side up or the optional paper feeder with the print-side
up.
Due to the structure of envelopes, printing evenly over the entire surface may not be possible in some cases.
Thin envelopes in particular may be wrinkled by the machine in some cases as they pass through. Before
purchasing envelopes in volume, try testing a sample to ensure the print quality.
Storing envelopes for a long period may cause them to become wrinkled. Thus, keep the package sealed until
you are ready to use them.
Keep the following points in mind.
• Do not use envelopes with exposed adhesive. In addition, do not use the type of envelope in which the
adhesive is exposed after the top layer is peeled off. Serious damage may be caused if the paper covering the
adhesive comes off in the machine.
• Do not use envelopes with certain special features. For example, do not use envelopes with a grommet for
winding a string to close the flap or envelopes with an open or film-covered window.
• If paper jams occur, load fewer envelopes at once.
Thick Paper
Before loading thick paper in the multi purpose tray, fan it and align the edges. Some thick paper may still have
rough edges developed by a paper cutter on the back side. Remove any such rough edges just as with Hagaki
(Cardstock) by placing the paper on a flat surface and rubbing the edges gently a few times with a ruler. Printing
onto paper with rough edges may cause jams.
Do not load paper above the load limits located on the paper width guide of the optional paper feeder.
If the paper is not supplied correctly even after it is smoothed, load the paper in the multi purpose tray with
the leading edge raised a few millimeters.
