A label consists of a face sheet (the printing surface), adhesive, and a car-
rier sheet.
–The face sheet must adhere to the plain paper specifications listed in
“Paper Specifications” on page 3-2.
–The face sheet surface must cover the entire carrier sheet, and no adhe-
sive should come through on the surface.
–The adhesive and carrier sheet must withstand the fusing temperature
(392° F/200° C).
Avoid using labels with exposed adhesive; it may stick to the toner car-
tridge or the fixing roller, causing labels to peel off and media jams to
occur.
Check your application documentation for other information on printing
labels.
