To avoid trouble, transparency must be delivered
If transparency jams frequently, pull the top of the sheet very gently as it leaves the machine.
Adhesive-Backed Labels
The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come into contact with any part of the machine. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the machine.
Label paper must be manually fed.
Label paper has a structure comprising of three layers, as shown in the figure below. The top sheet is printed on. The adhesive layer consists of
Top sheet (white bond paper) 
Adhesive
Carrier sheet
Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no spaces between the individual labels. Labels with spaces in between are apt to peel off, causing serious paper jam problems.
