Phaser 4400 Printer: Printing envelopes
Printing EnvelopesEnvelopes can be printed from the optional envelope feeder, the Multi-Purpose Tray, or Tray 1, 2, or 3.
Guidelines for envelope printing
Many applications include a tool for creating an envelope document. For example, Microsoft Word includes an Envelopes and Labels feature in the Tools menu. Be sure to:
Never use envelopes with windows, metal clasps, or exposed gummed surfaces; they can damage the printer. Damage caused by using unsupported envelopes might not be covered by your printer's warranty.
Note: The heat from the printing process can melt certain types of envelope glue. If the envelope flap sticks shut after printing the test print, tuck the flaps inside the envelopes when printing the remaining envelopes.
Printing envelopes from the envelope feeder
In the application, define the envelope size (page size). In the printer driver, select Tray 1, 2, or 3 (the tray you just loaded) as the paper source, select the envelope size, and select Envelope as the paper type.
Make a test print from your application to confirm that the orientation of your envelope is correct.
Printing envelopes from the Multi-Purpose TrayInsert the envelopes into the Multi-Purpose Tray. For more information, refer to the Trays section of the Trays and Paper Guide on the Interactive Documentation CD-ROM.
Place the side to be printed faceup.
The top of the envelopes should be toward the left of the printer.
When the front panel prompts you to confirm or change the paper type and size:
Press the Down Arrow key to scroll to Change Paper Type then press the OK key.
Scroll to Envelope and press the OK key to save your selection.
Scroll to Change Paper Size then press the OK key.
Scroll to the correct envelope size and press the OK key to save your selection.
In the printer driver, select Multi-Purpose Tray as the paper source and select Envelopes as the paper type.
