Loading labels

You can load up to 25 sheets of labels at a time.

1Load labels with the print side facing you and the top of the sheet fed into the printer first.

2Make sure:

The print side of the labels faces you.

The top of the labels feeds into the printer first.

The adhesive on the labels does not extend to within 1 mm of the edge of the labels.

You use full label sheets. Partial sheets (with areas exposed by missing labels) may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a paper jam.

The labels are loaded in the center of the paper support.

The paper guides rest against the edges of the labels.

Note: Labels require more drying time. Remove each sheet of labels as it exits, and allow it to dry to avoid ink smudging.
