Can it print envelopes and legal paper at the same time? I don't want to have to load it every time? Thanks!

You can have one bin (if you have a two bin setup) with legal paper or you can use the manual feed to print on legal paper and the use the manual feed to print envelopes. If you use legal paper regularly, you probably will want one bin filled with legal size paper and the other bin filled with 8.5x11 paper. Otherwise, I would just use the manual feed for the legal size paper.

No it cannot. Envelopes must be printed in the tray that came with the 8600. So what I do is put regular paper in the 2nd (bottom) tray and reserve the original (top) tray for envelopes and special paper, such as photo, high quality printer and card stock.

Indeed it does, which is a big reason that I chose this printer over a printer of another well-known manufacturer. I print odd-sized envelopes frequently, not just standard #10 business envelopes, and the printer handles them like a champ. By the way, envelopes are fed in from the top paper tray, as are any other nonstandard papers, such as card stock and photo paper.

This printer was bought for a gift. I contacted the person and they said "yes" and you can not use for paper and food items at the same time. The printer is for edible projects only. I hope it helps.

Not automatically. You can select "manually print both sides" and it will print the odd pages and then prompt you to reload the paper to print the even pages.

Yes it does, I use legal and letter size. If your printing a package that uses letter and legal it doesn't print both. It prints letter or legal as which the program requires.

That's exactly what it's for. I added this to my printer so that I can print on letter, legal, or a combination of both at the same time. I print multi-player documents (100+ pages) that are a combination of letter and legal size documents. I used to have to seperate the documents into two sets and print individually...no more. This was worth the money.

Yes, that's the way I have mine setup. and I feed labels and envelopes through the manual tray. It knows what size paper is in each tray and automatically does it's thing.Great printer! there's even a wireless app for your tablet or phone. Scan and copy work well also.

I received your question. This printer will print both letter and legal and it will do it per instructions it receives from the PDF if you have the option selected for it to determine which size to print. I forget what it's called but it does work.

I feed card stock and other special items such as fabric (yes it will print on fabric, that is backed with freezer paper) one at a time, and I have had no problem. I really like this printer alot.

Yes, you can scan and fax multi pages. No need to do one at a time. You just stack 'em and they feed through. I really love this one so far

No, not all at the same time, but you need to have all operative. It is to say, if you don't have red and you want to print only in black or grayscale you won't be able. The HP machine has some stupid function that won't allow you. I mean, that will happen to this printers with all kind of cartridges not only with these ones.

I'm not at our home with that printer so while I think it does (where you print envelopes) I can't say for sure; however I print 3 part checks from the regular paper tray with no problem.

You can drop a single sheet on top of other sheets as long as they are the same size. The tray has to be removed to do this. The printer picks up the top sheet. To do an envelope, the tray has to be removed and the paper taken out. The guides on the sides have to be adjusted to the envelope without putting pressure on it. A detail in the tray shows which way the envelope should go. In the software program where you set up the address, click print envelope. I never tried to do more than one envelope at a time. Once you have figured it out, it becomes straight forward.

Not if I am careful to use good (I use hp paper) paper. This great printer will feed envelopes very well. I use that feature to play around with fonts for Christmas cards and gifts. While looking for a good printer for another location I I had bad results with several of the highest rated (by consumer's union) hp printers. This happened in a very dry climate using old paper. I bought new paper and still had feed problems with other hp models. When trying this (8600) - the feed problems just went away. I believe the dry climate drys and stiffens the paper, taxing any printer's feed system. If you are in a dry (or very humid) climate, read all hp instructions about paper storage, loading and feeding. One other problem I brought on myself at the dry climate location - I bought the 8600 at a retailer (big box store). Never again. I bought my latest 8600 directly from hp to get hp support. Best printer decision I ever made. HP warranty and support is world class or better and the first year support is free. I've extended my hardware and hp system support. Next best money I ever spent. Hope this helps you.

I have just printed one envelope at a time with no problems. They go in sideways. The software on-line manual shows how to load the envelope.

Yes. You can switch back and forth, depending on how you want each separate job to print.
