Where is the paper cassette tray? I tried the lower tray. Where do I position one #10 envelope to print for mailing?

Does this allow you to hand-feed single sheets? I only see the tray to hold a stack of paper.

I haven't used this printer in two years, mine jammed from unknown reasons, and after many fruitless hours trying to get it repaired, I've moved on. However IIRC the dedicated photo tray, just under the drying tray, is sized for 4x6 paper. Open the tray load the paper and slide photo tray forward. The printer if it's working properly should then pick up the paper from that tray. Unfortunately, while trying to get mine fixed, I read many reports of the printer failing to pick up paper from that tray. If it doesn't work automatically there is no way to force it to use that tray. I wish I could be more help.

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.

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 ?

It's not inside of the printer. When you open the front of the printer, you'll get two trays. The lower one is where you store the paper, and the top one is where your prints come out. So your paper supply sticks out for about a third of a paper length.

This printer has 2 paper trays. I use one for letter stock and the other for envelopes. On checking, it looks like the trays are not long enough to accept 14" paper. So... Lotsa luck!

I printed on 8.5x11" photo paper via the rear paper feed. I didn't try through tray 2, as I did not want to bend the paper. I've had nothing but trouble with this printer, though. Epson is sending me my third printer, as the second one had the same clogged nozzles proble as the first.

VERY IMPORTANT - In Office 10 "Word" THE HP 8100 Office Jet PRO envelope printing......On the Envelope setting make sure by clicking OPTIONS that the selection is feed from TRAY 1 and that the position selection is feed from the center.REMOVE paper from the tray and move the guides to feed the envelope from the center. IF YOU DON"T DO THIS YOU CANNOT PRINT THE ENVEOPE it will misfeed every time. Took me a while to figure it out!

Am not able to get Printshop ProPublisher 23 Deluxe to print half fold greeting card envelopes. Also having problems with number of copies ordered. Usually prints far more than I ask for.

The printer trays show options for different sizes paper including envelopes different sizes. I have not printed any envelopes yet. There is a user defined feature, where you can define your own document definitions. I would imagine if your envelopes are not pre programmed, you could do it there. I have used that feature for odd sized paper for quilt blocks and machine embroidery templates.

Use your file/print menu. Advanced settings. Designate your lower tray as the letter size and the upper tray as legal.

Yes it does have a manual feed tray. You would print envelopes by choosing non-duplex printing. I prefer to retrieve them from the back door rather than letting them go to the output tray. Mind you, both Brother laser printers that I have do not print envelopes cleanly or evenly - but that could also be because I use cheap envelopes - your "mileage" may vary.

I still have the software on my comuter for this printer. Take the paper out of the tray. Grab the entire tray mechanism (photo and larger) by the back end of tray (printer end). Wiggle it a little, then press down carefully on the back of trays (printer side/not front) and see if it clicks into place. The "help" says this is for when the photo tray won't dis-engage, so try it. Maybe when you loaded it the trays lifted a little. Also, this printer seems to have an issue with overloading. Put the paper back in (don't go above the top of the paper guides) then slide in the guides till they touch the paper. See if the top tray will swing down. That's all the menu had, sorry. Hope it helps. I still have the software on my comuter for this printer. Take the paper out of the tray. Grab the entire tray mechanism (photo and larger) by the back end of tray (printer end).

Have to configure tray#2. Hit OK, 2. Down Arrow Step to "Paper Tray", 3. OK " Tray Use", 4. OK " Auto", 5. "Back" 6. Step down arrow till "Tray2 Size" hit OK them select letter or legal hit OK. Note that tray1 may already set up for letter but I found I like tray2 for letter and tray1 for legal in either case you have to check both configurations. Good Luck ! Pat F.

Hi Mary, I will answer this if you only have one tray and then if you bought the optional 2nd tray as I did. With only 1 tray take out the paper and place your envelopes in. Then adjust the sides and fron of the tray to fit your envelopes. I place mine face down in the center of the tray. Then when you go to your word processor, you select print envelopes and follow the instructions. When you go to print select the envelope you are using adn the position. I use word and it would allow to place the envelopes to the left, middle, or right hand. If you have the optional tray 2 (it must be the bottom tray) you need to place your regular paper in that tray and setup that tray to be the default tray. Then you can keep envelopes in tray 1 the uppermost tray. When you go to print an envelope you select tray 1. You can also set your printer up to know that Tray 1 is envelopes and Tray 2 is 8.5 X 11 paper. Then most programs know to use tray 1 if you are printing an envelope. Hope this helps. Sorry I couldn't answer earlier.
