-Curl: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm 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.

Preprinted paper

When loading preprinted paper, the printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feeding, turn the paper around. Note that print quality is not guaranteed.

Must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second (about 170°C (338°F)).

Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect machine rollers.

Before you load preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.
