Guidelines

 

To avoid damaging the machine, use only

 

 

transparencies designed for use in laser

 

 

printers.

 

Transparencies used in the printer must be able

 

 

to withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.

 

 

Check your machine’s specification to view the

 

 

fusing temperature, see page 13.1.

 

Place them on a flat surface after removing

 

 

them from the machine.

 

Do not leave them in the paper tray for long

 

 

periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate

 

 

on them, resulting in spotty printing.

Transparencies

To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints,

 

handle them carefully.

 

 

 

To avoid fading, do not expose printed

 

 

transparencies to prolonged sunlight.

 

Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled,

 

 

curled, or have any torn edges.

Caution

Recommended media: Transparency for a Color Laser Printers produced by HP, Xerox and 3M.

It is not recommended to use paperbacked transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334, which can cause a jam or be scratched.

Guidelines

 

• To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels

 

 

designed for use in laser printers.

 

• When selecting labels, consider the following

 

 

factors:

 

 

- Adhesives: The adhesive material should be

 

 

stable at your machine’s fusing temperature.

 

 

Check your machine’s specification to view the

 

 

fusing temperature, see page 13.1.

 

 

- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed

 

 

backing between them. Labels can peel off

 

 

sheets that have spaces between the labels,

 

 

causing serious jams.

 

 

- Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no

Labels

 

more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any

 

direction.

 

 

 

 

- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles,

 

 

bubbles, or other indications of separation.

 

Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive

 

 

material between labels. Exposed areas can cause

 

 

labels to peel off during printing, which can cause

 

 

paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause

 

 

damage to machine components.

 

• Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine

 

 

more than once. The adhesive backing is designed

 

 

for only a single pass through the machine.

 

• Do not use labels that are separating from the

 

 

backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or

 

 

otherwise damaged.

 

 

 

 

Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm

Card stock or

 

(3.00 inches) wide or 127 mm (5.00 inches) long.

custom-sized

In the software application, set margins at least

materials

 

6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of

 

 

the material.

 

 

 

 

Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant

 

 

ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release

 

 

hazardous emissions when subjected to the

 

 

printer’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second.

 

 

Check your machine’s specification to view the

 

 

fusing temperature, see page 13.1.

Preprinted

Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and

 

should not adversely affect printer rollers.

paper

 

Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a

 

 

 

moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes

 

 

during storage.

 

• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms

 

 

and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is

 

 

dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come

 

 

off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.
