Envelopes | • Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the | ||||||
| quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, | ||||||
| consider the following factors: | ||||||
| - | Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should | |||||
|
| not exceed 90 g/m2 or jamming may occur. | |||||
| - | Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should | |||||
|
| lie flat with less than 6 mm curl, and should not | |||||
|
| contain air. | |||||
| - | Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, | |||||
|
| nicked, or otherwise damaged. | |||||
| - | Temperature: You should use envelopes that are | |||||
|
| compatible with the heat and pressure of the | |||||
|
| machine during operation. | |||||
| • Use only | ||||||
| well creased folds. | ||||||
| • Do not use stamped envelopes. | ||||||
| • Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, | ||||||
| coated lining, | ||||||
| materials. | ||||||
| • Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes. | ||||||
| • Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope | ||||||
| extends all the way to the corner of the envelope. | ||||||

|
| |
| • Envelopes with a | |
| more than one flap that folds over to seal must use | |
| adhesives compatible with the machine’s fusing | |
| temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s | |
| specification to view the fusing temperature, see | |
| page 80. The extra flaps and strips might cause | |
| wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage | |
| the fuser. | |
| • For the best print quality, position margins no closer | |
| than 15 mm from the edges of the envelope. | |
| • Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s | |
| seams meet. | |
|
| |
Labels | • To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels | |
| designed for use in laser machines. | |
| - | When selecting labels, consider the following |
|
| factors: |
| - | Adhesives: The adhesive material should be |
|
| stable at your machine’s fusing temperature. |
|
| Check your machine’s specification to view the |
|
| fusing temperature, see page 80. |
| - | Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed |
|
| backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets |
|
| that have spaces between the labels, causing |
|
| serious jams. |
| - | Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no |
|
| more than 13 mm of curl in any direction. |
| - | Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, |
|
| bubbles, or other indications of separation. |
| • Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive | |
| material between labels. Exposed areas can cause | |
| labels to peel off during printing, which can cause | |
| paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause | |
| damage to machine components. | |
| • Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine | |
| more than once. The adhesive backing is designed | |
| for only a single pass through the machine. | |
| • Do not use labels that are separating from the | |
| backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise | |
| damaged. | |
|
| |
Card stock or | • Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm wide or | |
356 mm long. | ||
materials | • In the software application, set margins at least | |
| 6.4 mm away from the edges of the material. | |
|
| |
Preprinted | • Letterhead must be printed with | |
paper | that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous | |
| emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing | |
| temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine’s | |
| specification to view the fusing temperature, see | |
| page 80. | |
| • Letterhead ink must be | |
| not adversely affect printer rollers. | |
| • Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a | |
| ||
| storage. | |
| • Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms | |
| and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is | |
| dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off | |
| preprinted paper, reducing print quality. | |
