If you occasionally need to print labels, use paper labels designed for laser printers. Use only label sheets that have no gaps between the labels, as shown at left. Try a sample of any labels you are considering using with the printer before purchasing a large quantity.
Labels must be able to withstand temperatures of 195°C (383°F) and pressure of 25 psi. For detailed information on label printing, characteristics, and design, refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide on the printer CD.
Only feed labels from the multipurpose feeder. Do not load labels in the trays. Refer to the Setup Guide for loading instructions.
When printing on labels:
•Use only paper labels. Do not use vinyl labels.
•Do not print a large number of labels continuously.
•Do not use labels that have adhesive exposed on the sheets.
•Do not use labels that have coating or sizing applied to make the labels
•To minimize curl, use the rear output bin so the labels feed straight out the back of the printer.
•From the operator panel or from MarkVision, set the Paper Type to Labels.
You can load a small quantity of heavier paper in the mul- tipurpose feeder. To minimize curl, use the rear output bin so the paper feeds straight out the back of the printer.
