LabelsTo avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in
laser printers.
• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
-Adhesives: Should be stable at your machine’s fusing
temperature. Check your machine’s specifications to view the
fusing temperature (about 170°C (338°F)).
-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: 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 p eel of f duri ng pri nting ,

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.
