On-Line Support The envelopes are fed face-up, with the top (left) side right up against the left-most edge of your multi-purpose tray. The printer's console/status display
area should prompt you with "feed envelope". Older laser printers (e.g., the Hewlett-Packard 3 or 4) may prompt you with something to the effect to "feed COM10" into the tray, instead. If placing your envelopes in this manner is impractical because you already generate envelopes by adjusting the feeder tray differently from the standard way shown above, then you need to adjust the MARGINS of all your RTF documents that now have envelope pages. In this case, you will need to know how many inches to the right of the "zero" (left-most) position the envelope feeder slots are positioned, so you can precisely move the top margin in the document down-ward (it's the top since envelopes are printed landscape). You would add this value (of inches) to the 1.65 inches currently set up as the top margin for the section where the envelope template body appears in your RTF.
