Epson EPL-8000 Printer User Manual


 
Choosing Paper
Labels
— Use only labels designed for laser printers or plain-paper
copiers in your printer. When printing labels, use the optional
face-up output tray; this keeps the labels from curling or coming
off the backing sheet. Always manually feed labels.
To prevent the adhesive from coming into contact with the printer
parts, always use labels that completely cover the backing sheet so
that there are no gaps between the individual labels. You should
test the label sheet for leaking adhesive by pressing a sheet of
paper on top of a sheet of labels. If the paper sticks at all, do not
use the labels.
Other materials
— You can use overhead projector transparencies
and adhesive drafting film if they are made for use with plain-paper
copiers or laser printers. When printing these materials, use the
optional face-up output tray.
Envelopes-You can insert several envelopes in the manual-feed
slot for automatic loading. Load envelopes with the flap-side down
as shown below.
The printing quality on envelopes may be irregular because
different parts of an envelope have different thicknesses, and the
thickness or weight of particular envelopes may affect your results.
Test a sample envelope before you buy a large number. Also, use
the optional face-up output tray to keep the envelopes from
curling. If the printing is too light, turn the print density knob
counterclockwise. Always return the print density knob to the
center position when you go back to printing on ordinary paper.
