Note:

It is best to load continuous paper with labels on the pull tractor. Do not load labels on the rear or front push tractor.

Do not load continuous paper with labels from the rear paper slot. Because the rear paper path is curved, labels may come off their backing sheets inside the printer and cause a paper jam.

Do not load paper that is curled or has been folded.

Never feed labels backward using the Load/Eject or Tear Off/Bin button. When fed backward, labels can easily peel off the backing sheet and cause a paper jam.

Because labels are sensitive to temperature and humidity, use them only under normal operating conditions:

Temperature

59 to 77 °F (15 to 25 °C)

Humidity

30 to 60% RH

Do not leave labels loaded in the printer between jobs; they may curl around the platen and jam when you resume printing.

Removing continuous paper with labels

To prevent labels from peeling off the backing sheet and jamming the printer, follow these steps to remove continuous paper with labels from the printer:

1. Tear off the fresh supply of continuous labels at the perforation nearest the paper entry slot.

2.Hold down the LF/FF button to eject the remaining labels from the printer.

cCaution:

Never feed labels backward using the Load/Eject or Tear Off/Bin button. When fed backward, labels can easily come off the backing sheet and cause a paper jam.
