Transparency
To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in
laser printers.
• Must withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.
• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.
• Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long. Dust and dirt
may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.
• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.
• To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged
sunlight.
• Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges.
• Do not use transparencies that separate from the backing sheet.
• To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the printed
sheets stack up as they are being printed out.
Labels
To 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
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.
