Loading Envelopes:

1. Prepare envelopes.
   
   1. Press down on all four corners and edges of the envelopes to flatten them.
      
      
      
   2. If the envelopes are curled, hold the opposite corners and gently twist them in the opposite direction.
      
      
      
   3. If the corner of the envelope flap is folded, flatten it.
      
   4. Use a pen to press the leading edge in the inserting direction flat and sharpen the crease.
      
      
      The figures above show a side view of the leading edge of the envelope.
