Labels

CAUTION To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended for laser printers. To prevent serious jams, always use tray 1 to print labels and always use the rear output bin. Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once or print on a partial sheet of labels.

Label construction

When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:

Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), which is the printer fusing temperature.

Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets with spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 in) of curl in any direction.

Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.

For more information, see Printing on labels.

NOTE Choose labels in the printer driver (see Printer drivers).

Transparencies

Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand 200°C (392°F), which is the printer fusing temperature.

CAUTION To avoid damaging the printer, use only transparencies recommended for use in HP LaserJet printers, such as HP-brand transparencies. (For ordering information, see Part numbers.)

For more information, see Printing on transparencies.

NOTE Choose transparencies in the printer driver (see Printer drivers).
