Guidelines for Transparencies and Labels

Always use manual feed.

Always use rear output when printing transparencies and adhesive labels.

Should be specifically made for laser printers or photocopiers.

Must be able to withstand heat of 200°C for 0.1 second.

Labels should cover the entire carrier sheet–carrier and adhesive must not be exposed to any part of the printer.

Use rear paper output – to reduce heat exposure and curling.

Using Recycled Print Media

Recycled paper should be restricted to 20% to 35% Post Consumer Content and not exceed 50%. Paper must be relatively stiff and have minimum edge curl. Paper should be white and bright for maximum contrast. The surface should be smooth, clean, and stable electrically and dimensionally.

problems requiring service that will not be covered by OKIDATA warranty or service agreements.
