• Only envelopes that are at least 148 mm (5.9 inches) wide and whose flaps are open can be
loaded in the orientation.
•
When loading envelopes in the
orientation, load them with flaps fully open. Otherwise, they
might not feed into the machine.
•
Before loading envelopes, press down on them to remove any air from inside, flatten out all four
edges. If they are bent or curled, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the machine) by
running a pencil or ruler across them.
• Some kinds of envelopes might cause misfeeds or wrinkles. If this happens, open the right cover
and push down the envelope lever of the fusing unit.
