HP (Hewlett-Packard) 3550 All in One Printer User Manual


 
Envelopes
NOTE
Envelopes can be printed only from Tray 1. Set the tray media size to the specific envelope
size.
Adhere to the following guidelines to help ensure proper printing on envelopes and to help
prevent printer jams:
Do not load more than ten envelopes into Tray 1.
The weight rating of envelopes should not exceed 90 g/m
2
(24 lb bond).
Envelopes should be flat.
Do not use envelopes with windows or clasps.
Envelopes must not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
Envelopes with peel-off adhesive strips must use adhesives that can withstand the heat
and pressures of the printer fusing process.
Envelopes should be loaded face-down with the top of the envelope to the left, and the
short edge feeding into the printer first.
NOTE
In high-humidity environments, envelopes should be printed long-edge first to prevent them
from sealing during printing. For long-edge printing, envelopes should be loaded long edge
first, face down. See the Printing envelopes from the Tray 1 section in the HP Color LaserJet
3550 and 3700 series printer User Guide to change the printer driver envelope orientation.
Labels
NOTE
In either the application or the printer driver, selectLabels as the media type, or configure
Tray 1 for labels.
When printing labels, use the following guidelines:
Verify that the label adhesive material can tolerate temperatures of 190°C (374°F) for
0.1 second.
Verify that there is no exposed adhesive material between the labels. Exposed areas
can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed
adhesive can also cause damage to printer components.
Do not re-feed a sheet of labels.
Verify that labels lie flat.
Do not use labels that are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
