Guidelines / Requirements for Envelopes and Postcards

When using envelopes and postcards, use the guidelines given below.

Envelopes

An envelope is a more complex object than a single sheet of paper. For this reason, it may not be possible to obtain consistent printing quality over the entire envelope surface. Use the following guidelines to select the proper envelopes.

• Envelopes should have the basis weight of 70 to 100g/m2 (0.16 to 0.22 lb./ream) and up to 4 plies of the paper that is used to construct the paper including all flaps and overlaps.
• Envelopes should have sharply-creased folds and accurately joined corner edges.
• Envelopes should have a smooth, uncoated surface. Envelopes that are too smooth, however, can give an adverse effect to the drum and fuser units inside the printer.
• Envelopes should have a straight grain orientation.

• Envelopes should have a pulp content of al least 80%, and should have a moisture content of 4 to 6%.

Figures below shows some typical envelope types:

This is the type of envelope best recommended for use with the bulk paper feeder.


Although this type of envelope generally feeds normally, they are somewhat prone to jamming than above.

This type of envelope performs reliably, provided that envelopes are loaded so that the bottom (sealed end) feeds into the printer first.


Avoid using this type of envelope made of double-ply paper.

Curled Envelopes

An envelope tends to curl excessively or become uneven in its thickness since it is constructed by paper which is folded, creased, and seamed in many parts, making the stack of envelopes on the feeder tray unlevel. To avoid feeding problems, the unevenness of the stack of envelopes on the paper tray must be less than those specified in the following figures:

Vertical curl must be less than 10 mm. Thickness in bottom or top must be less than 10 mm

Horizontal curl must be less than 5 mm. Thickness in right or left trails must be less than 5 mm.
