Labels
If you occasionally need to print labels, use paper labels
designed for laser printers. Use only label sheets that have
no gaps between the labels, as shown at left. Try a sample
of any labels you are considering using with the printer
before purchasing a large quantity.
Labels must be able to withstand temperatures of 195°C
(383°F) and pressure of 25 psi. For detailed information on
label printing, characteristics, and design, refer to the Card
Stock & Label Guide on the printer CD.
Only feed labels from the multipurpose feeder. Do not
load labels in the trays. Refer to the Setup Guide for loading
instructions.
When printing on labels:
• Use only paper labels. Do not use vinyl labels.
• Do not print a large number of labels continuously.
• Do not use labels that have adhesive exposed on the
sheets.
• Do not use labels that have coating or sizing applied
to make the labels liquid-resistant.
• To minimize curl, use the rear output bin so the
labels feed straight out the back of the printer.
• From the operator panel or from MarkVision, set the
Paper Type to Labels.
Card stock
You can load a small quantity of heavier paper in the mul-
tipurpose feeder. To minimize curl, use the rear output bin
so the paper feeds straight out the back of the printer.
The properties of the card stock you choose—such as the
orientation of the paper fibers, moisture content, thick-
ness, and texture—can affect print quality. For more infor-
mation on the types of card stock your printer supports,
refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide on the printer CD.
Always set the Paper Type to Card Stock when printing on
heavier paper. The printer then adjusts the fuser tempera-
ture and engine speed to ensure the best print quality.
