Cut Sheet Paper Labels
Generally, cut sheet paper labels work well with your printer. Coating or sizing to make the paper
liquid-resistant decreases toner adhesion and increases the risk of toner contaminating the fuser. At
a minimum, paper labels should be equivalent in weight and rigidity to a 20 lb xerographic, bond
paper.
