Tips on using envelopes
Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities.
•
Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure that the
envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 220°C (446°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or
releasing hazardous emissions.
•
For best performance, use envelopes made from 90-g/m
2
(24-lb bond) paper or 25% cotton. All-cotton envelopes
must not exceed 70-g/m
2
(20-lb bond) weight.
•
Use only new envelopes from undamaged packages.
•
To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:
–
Have excessive curl or twist.
–
Are stuck together or damaged in any way.
–
Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing.
–
Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars.
–
Have an interlocking design.
–
Have postage stamps attached.
–
Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position.
–
Have bent corners.
–
Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes.
•
Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes.
Note:
A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes.
