This printer doesn't do very well with envelopes. You can try the bypass tray, but in my experience it will jam every time. Your best bet is to adjust the paper tray to envelope size, load in 6-10 envelopes, flap side up and to the left. Mine still jams really frequently, expect to ruin 2 envelopes for every one you get to print correctly. Envelopes that print "correctly" still come out slightly crumpled.

I don't know because I have never printed for an envelope before. I recommend you contact the 1-800 number on the owners manual for assistance.

On the outside (black strip) there are two sliders that move. Make them as small as your envelope. Place your envelope between the two sliders. Then printHope that helps

You should have no trouble using "Envelope Printer" with this printer. However, reading a few Customer Reviews on Amazon for this printer, it is no easy task setting the printer up to print envelopes. Hope this helps.

I have only printed a few, but it works just fine. I printed the envelopes out of Word. Envelopes load in the front of the printer via the manual load tray.

Is it easy to print envelopes and has anyone used it with stamps.com to print postage directly on the envelope? I have a Brother Intellifax 4100 and printing postage on envelopes and labels are a snap. I wonder if the Canon is as easy.

Hi, Regarding printing for envelopes works great has a special slot in the back of the printer for inserting envelopes. They print extremely fast especially in black and white.

Silly Guy, it DOES print envelopes ! On the front just below the name "brother" there is a flap, about 12" wide by 1" tall with a recessed handle. Pull down on that cut out / handle and the flap pulls open. The grey tabs inside on the left & right, slide in or outward to act as guides for your envelopes or any other sheet stock you wish to print on. On the very back of the copier is another flap with a more pronounced handle. Pull that flap open / down as well and when you install your envelope in the front it will print and come out the back. Got it ?

Depends on what youy mean by easy. This printer needs you to remove the regular paper from the tray, relocate the paper guide to the correct (indicated in tray) position and then place the envelopes. It's easy enough but not nearly as easy as my old HP printer from 1999 that had a dedicated slot where you could insert a single No. 10 envelope without having to mess with guides or removing paper. THAT was easy.

If you print envelopes a lot, like I do, I think it works well using the two-tray 8630 version. Here's how I did it. Plain Paper goes into tray two, envelopes in tray one (only place they are supported). Now, on the display choose your Default Tray as Tray 2 and Lock Tray 1. This will make sure regular print jobs go to plain paper in tray 2 and if it runs out of paper the printer won't automatically pull from tray 1 (that's what tray lock means). Now, via the Web Interface for the printer I told it that Tray 2 has plain letter size paper, and Tray 1 has my envelopes (you specify size there). Now, when I print an envelope it knows to pull from Tray 1 and everything else goes to Tray 2. On my Mac I've never had to tell it what tray to use, the printer just knows and pulls from the correct location. Your mileage may vary, etc.

Yes, it prints envelopes. I print about 80 envelopes every other month for a newsletter for a non-profit organization. I use Open Office, creating a data base with all the members, and then am able to print envelopes with a return address and the members address. You can only fit about 10-12 envelopes at a time in the tray, and I have had the flap on the envelopes cause a paper jam. It sure beats buying Avery labels and printing and sticking them to the envelopes.

Yes, I always print the envelope to mail my card in. After printing the card there is a tab at the bottom that says 'print envelope'. Click on that and then 'edit envelope'. You can address and put your return address. Sometimes I put a picture as well. There is a way to create an address book, but I have not done that yet.

I would say no. Unlike past models from HP you cannot feed envelopes from the top. You now have to pull out a paper tray to print an envelope. This is a lot more time consuming. Envelopes will print though.

I print all my envelopes at work with this printer (probably 10-15 per week) and it works great for me. Just pull down the manual feed tray, insert the blank envelope (as shown in the drawing on the feed tray) and click "print." So far no jams. Have had this printer at work for about 6 months. I don't know why another reviewer said the printed envelopes come out the back of the printer. Mine don't. They come out printed side down at the same place a printed sheet of paper comes out. (To clarify, I am using #10 size business envelopes.)

envelopes go in the same way paper does. strait up and in the middle of the printer. Make sure the flap is pointing to the right, as you face the printer. and of course face down. hope this helps

I haven't printed envelopes specifically, but it has printed every non-standard (8.5 X 11) paper size I've fed it including: labels sheets, business cards, small name card labels, and more. I hope that helps!

You take the paper out, lay the envelope face down as the illustration in the trays shows, close the paper guides to the size of the envelope, slide the drawer back in and print

You do NOT put these envelopes in a laser printer! The insert should be programmed to show thru the two windows when folded properly. You should purchase plain envelopes if laser printing is to be used.
