Guidelines for Labels

Do not use vinyl labels.

Do not use any labels on a sheet where items are missing; it may damage printer components.

Store unused labels flat in their original packaging. Leave the product inside the original packaging until ready to use. Return any unused product to the original packaging and reseal it for protection.

Do not store labels in extremely dry or humid conditions or extremely hot or cold conditions. Storing them in extreme conditions may cause print quality problems or cause them to jam in the printer.

Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause the labels to curl and jam the printer.

Print only on one side of the sheet of labels.

Printing Labels

If your application has a setting for labels, use it as a template. Labels can be printed from any tray.

1.Insert the labels into a tray:

Tray 1 (MPT)

Insert the label sheets long-edge feed (recommended) and facedown into Tray 1 (MPT). Place the top of the page toward the front of the printer.
