Envelope Feeding
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and on-line.
2. Turn on the envelope mode
by pressing and holding the LF/FF button, and then pressing the
ON LINE button. The beeper will sound once and the indicator
light for the current print mode will blink. Press ON LINE to set
the printer back on-line.
3. Make sure the green paper
thickness lever on the inside of the printer is set to the right.
4. Set the paper selection
lever to the forward position and move the paper guide to the
left to match the envelope's width.
5. Arrange the stack of envelopes on a firm surface and press down firmly on the edges to make the folds crisp. Press all the way around the envelopes to remove any curls and expel air from inside the envelopes.
6. Align the stack of
envelopes with the right edge of the sheet feeder, and slide in
the stack until it stops.
7. Adjust the paper guide to the stack of envelopes.
8. Print from your application.
After printing on envelopes, follow these steps before printing on normal paper again:
1. Set the paper selection lever (on the right side of the sheet feeder) to the back position.
2. Set the green paper thickness lever (inside the printer) to the left position.
3. Disable the envelope mode. To do this, make sure the printer is on-line; then press and hold the LF/FF button and press the ON LINE button.
