Step 3¨ Load the Photographic-Quality Labels in Your Printer

You may use either automatic feed mode or manual feed mode to load the paper into your printer.

1.For manual feed mode, set the paper feed switch to posi- tion "M"; for automatic feed mode, set it to "A".

Paper feed switch “A”

Paper feed switch “M”

2.For automatic feeding, load the guide sheet supplied with the paper into the sheet feeder, placing the printed side facing down. Then, place the Photographic-Quality Labels on the guide sheet. Only the glossy side of the Photo- graphic-Quality Labels is printable, so be sure to load the sheets with the glossy, printable side up. When handling sheets, hold the bent top of the guide sheet only to avoid smearing or discoloring the glossy printing surface.

Note

Only the glossy surface of paper can be subjected to Photo- graphic-Quality printing. Since the opposite surface cannot be printed on, make sure the paper is correctly orientated.
