Product Information

Full details

The Postmaster 162x238mm High Window Envelopes are ideal for businesses and administrative offices that rely on automated mailing machines to handle high-volume correspondence. These envelopes provide the benefit of smooth, jam-free operation thanks to their internal side seam construction and precise window placement, though users should note that the gummed seal requires manual wetting rather than being self-adhesive.

FAQs

Are these envelopes peel-and-seal?

No, these envelopes feature a traditional gummed closure that requires moisture to seal.

What is the weight of the paper used?

The envelopes are constructed from 90gsm white paper.

Can I print on these envelopes?

Yes, they are compatible with most standard laser and inkjet printers, provided your printer settings are adjusted to the envelope size.

What are the exact dimensions of the window?

The window measures 40mm high by 100mm wide.

How many envelopes come in a box?

Each box contains 500 individual envelopes.

Troubleshooting

Envelopes jamming in the machine

Ensure the side guides of your machine are set exactly to 162mm wide and check that the internal flaps are not overlapping.

Gummed seal is not adhering

Verify that your machine's moistening sponge is saturated and positioned correctly to contact the gummed strip evenly.

Envelopes curling during storage

Keep the internal cardboard inserts inside the box and ensure the lid is closed tightly to maintain structural pressure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent reliability in high-speed mailing machines
  • Professional 90gsm weight provides good document protection
  • Precise window dimensions minimize manual address adjustments
  • Includes inserts to maintain flatness during storage

Cons

  • Requires wetting for the gummed seal (no peel-and-seal feature)
  • Limited to specific window dimensions which may not fit all custom layouts
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty cardstock inserts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, keep the envelopes in their original box with the internal inserts until you are ready to load them into your machine. This prevents environmental moisture from causing the gummed flaps to curl or prematurely activate.

  • Compatibility: Compatible with most standard document inserters and automated mailing hardware that accepts 162x238mm (DL/C5 style) dimensions.
  • Care: Store in a cool, dry place. Excessive humidity can weaken the gummed adhesive or cause the envelopes to feed incorrectly.
  • Feeding: Always fan the stack of envelopes slightly before loading them into your machine to ensure separation and reduce static buildup.
