Appendix-8 ADVANCED OPERATION GUIDE
Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet
around the edge. Do not remove the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet
until after printing is finished.
The table below lists the specifications for adhesive label paper.
Postcards
Fan the stack of postcards and
align the edges before loading
them in the MP tray. Make sure
the postcards you are going to set
are not curled. Feeding curled
postcards may cause paper jams.
Some postcards have rough
edges on the back (those are
created when the paper is cut). In
this case, put the postcards on a flat place and rub the edges with, for
example, a ruler to smooth them.
Envelopes
Feed envelopes from the Multi-Bypass Tray.
Since the composition of an envelope is complex, consistent printing
quality over the entire envelope surface may be difficult. Thin envelopes
may wrinkled when they pass through the machine. Before purchasing
envelopes, perform a test to check to if the printing result is satisfactory.
Adhere to the following guidelines:
