When you print standard business envelopes, use the following guidelines:

  • If you are printing without a return address, type the mailing address in the upper-left corner of the document.
  • If a return address is included, type the return address in the upper-left corner of the document. Enter seven to nine blank lines from the return address to the mailing address. Set a tab at 4 inches and set a tab at the beginning of each address line.
  • Slide the manual feed guides together to hold the envelope. Open the back exit slot to help prevent paper jams. Feed the envelope face up and "stamp end" first.
