Labels
You must use the tractor as a pull tractor and load paper from the
bottom paper slot to print on labels. Before you print on labels,
set the paper thickness lever as described in “Adjusting the
paper-thickness lever” on page 44. Keep the following tips in
mind:
❏ Choose labels mounted on a continuous backing sheet with
sprocket holes made for use with a tractor. Do not print labels
as single sheets, because the shiny backing sheet almost
always slips slightly.
❏ Load labels the same way as you would load ordinary
continuous paper. See “Printing with the pull tractor” on page
31 for loading instructions.
❏ Because labels are especially sensitive to temperature and
humidity, use them only under normal operating conditions.
Make sure the printing stays entirely within the printable
area. (See “Printer Specifications” on page 109 for
specifications.)
❏ Do not leave labels loaded in the printer between jobs; they
curl around the platen and may jam when you resume
printing.
❏ To remove the labels from the printer, tear off the fresh supply
at the bottom of the printer; then press LF/FF to advance the
remaining labels out of the printer.

Caution:
Never feed labels backwards through the printer; they can easily
peel off the backing sheet and jam the printer. If a label does become
stuck in the printer, contact your dealer.
