Loading Special Papers
Follow the guidelines in this section when loading single-sheet multipart
forms, labels, envelopes, and postcards.
Continuous multipart forms
Except for adjusting the paper-thickness lever, you load continuous
multipart forms the same way as ordinary continuous paper.
Note:
❏ Be sure the multipart forms do not exceed 0.015 inch (0.39 mm) in
thickness.
❏ Do not load paper that is curled or has been folded.
❏ Thick paper, such as a multipart form with five parts, requires a straight
paper path to avoid paper jams. Load thick paper in the front or bottom
slots.
Single-sheet multipart forms
To load single-sheet multipart forms, use the front paper entry slot with
the optional front paper guide or front sheet guide installed. Thick paper,
such as a multipart form with five parts, requires a straight paper path to
avoid paper jams. For more information, see the Reference Guide.
Labels
When printing on labels, use only the type of labels that are mounted on
continuous backing sheets with sprocket holes for use with a tractor
feeder. Do not try to print on single sheets of labels because the printer
may not feed labels on a shiny backing sheet properly.
Thick paper, such as continuous paper with labels, requires a straight or
almost straight paper path. You can load labels in the front (to the pull
tractor) or bottom (pull tractor) paper slot.
The loading procedure for continuous paper with labels is the same as
that for ordinary continuous paper, except you must set the
paper-thickness lever to 2 before printing.
