Understanding print media guidelines

Envelopes

Try a sample of any envelope you are considering using with the printer before buying large quantities. For instructions on loading envelopes, see Loading the manual feeder on page 23.

When printing on envelopes:

To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality envelopes that are designed for use in laser printers.

Set the Paper Source in the Paper menu based on the source in use, set the Paper Type to Envelope, and select the correct envelope size from the control panel, the printer driver, or from MarkVision Professional.

For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper. Use up to 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond) weight for

the manual feeder as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. Envelopes with 100% cotton content must not exceed 75 g/m2 (20 lb) weight.

Use only new, undamaged envelopes.

For best performance and to minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:

Have excessive curl or twist.

Are stuck together or damaged in any way.

Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts or embossing.

Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars.

Have an interlocking design.

Have postage stamps attached.

Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position.

Have nicked edges or bent corners.

Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes.

Use envelopes that can withstand temperatures of 175°C (350°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. If you have any doubts about the envelopes you are considering using, check with the envelope supplier.

Adjust the width guide to fit the width of the envelope.

Load only one envelope at a time.

A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperatures may seal the envelopes.

Labels

The printer can print on many labels designed for use with laser printers, except for vinyl labels. These labels are supplied in letter-size, A4-size, and legal-size sheets. Label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats must be able to withstand temperatures of 210°C (410°F) and pressure of 25 pounds per square inch (psi).

Try a sample of any label you are considering using with the printer before purchasing a large quantity.

When printing on labels:

Set the Paper Type menu item to Labels in the Paper menu. Set the Paper Type from the printer control panel, the printer driver, or from MarkVision Professional.

Do not load labels together with paper or transparencies in the same source; mixing media can cause feeding problems.

Do not use label sheets with a slick backing material.

Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and cartridge warranties.

Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 210°C (410°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions.

Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
