Ethernet connectable? Do you know if small tray can be used for envelopes (since there's no multi envelope feeder) while using larger tray for paper?

Yes it has an Ethernet connection. It looks like the small tray, multifunction and large 500 sheet tray can accept envelopes. I don't have the manual handy to check.

I think you should try using the document feeder just above the paper tray.

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.

If you are talking actual size, paper wise would be 8 1/2 x 11 but you can also do envelopes & card stock through the manual feed. If you are asking about the feeder, you can do a single page loaded if necessary.

I am not positive, but I believe that you can. I've been using mine via ethernet network. It's working perfectly. Dreading buying the toners, but otherwise love this machine to death. Would be interested to hear if you get the wireless going.

The auto feed on the top only works for the scanner and copier. Envelopes and non standard paper have to go in the paper feeder. Hopefully that helps.

Hi, Karen! You'll need to specify that you want to print an envelope both on your computer and on the printer itself, in addition to having the multipurpose tray set up for envelopes. The printer's e-manual has more information under the topic "Registering the Paper Size."

Chuk, the feeder on top is only for the copier, the software for scanning only handles on page at a time, you adjust then add the next page <edit> which can be in the feeder <end edit>. You can print non-standard paper, I used thicker than 50lbs paper(cardstock) when printing on parchment for for a project my son put together. Envelopes twist very easy so you can only load ~10 into the tray and have them print correctly. Very solid performance and a word of advice if you choose to pick up this model. after the toner is reports it is out, you still have many pages of toner left in that cartridge, Keep using it until a color fades, then change. I've done >200 on Black and around 100 on the colors.

Yes but it will only use one connection method at a time. As long as the printer is on the network it shouldn't matter.

it's all about the connecting cables. You need a connector that will only connect the line you want to use. I use it to connect my fax when I need it.

Yes, one envelope can be fed at a time through the slot in the front. I often use it to feed photo paper and brochure paper and such to save the printer from having to deal with thick pieces which can cause a little more wear than I would like on the paper tray mechanism. The centering guides go down to 3".

The printer doesn't have a single sheet feeder that I have found. There is only one paper drawer. The drawer capacity is very small for a laser printer. I believe you can load envelopes in the drawer but you have to remove the paper first. I haven't had a need to print labels but I'm sure you can load Avery labels in the 8-1/2 x 11 inch feeder

This device is not an envelope printer. This is an envelope tray - like the paper tray - is simply holds envelopes so that you don't have to put envelopes in the manual feed tray - it is really a convenience attachment for the HP printer

Thanks for the responses. Can it print something as small as a 4 x 6 card? I'm shopping for a nonprofit school, and we do a lot of mailings. So smooth envelope feeding is essential. Do you know how many envelopes you can load at a time?

You can feed envelopes thru the fold-down tray in front but the envelopes come out curled and wrinkled, in my experience. The HP 400 does a better job at this.

Yes, we currently have it in network with 4 computers that has access to it. It prints multiple jobs through the tray and use it to print checks through the manual feed. It's a great printer and prints the black and white copies quickly.

I dont know about the feeder tray, but with a thicker paper when you are printing two sided, the paper gets jammed pretty easily. It does just fine one sided though.
