When printing on labels:
• From the operator panel or MarkVision Professional, set the Paper Type to Labels.
• Do not load labels together with paper or transparencies in the same paper source.
• To minimize curl, make sure the rear exit bin is open so the labels feed straight out the back of
the printer.
• Do not use label sheets with a slick backing material.
• Do not print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the die cut.
• Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a
paper jam. Partial sheets will also contaminate your printer and your cartridge with adhesive,
and could void your printer and cartridge warranties.
• Do not print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between
die-cuts of the label.
• Do not use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. We recommend zone
coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm (0.040 in.) away from edges. Adhesive material will
contaminate your printer and could void your warranty.
• If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 3 mm (0.125 in.) strip should be removed on
the leading and driver edge, and a non-oozing adhesive should be used.
• Remove a 3 mm (0.125 in.) strip from the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling inside
the printer.
• Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes.
• Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive.
• For best results when using the multipurpose feeder, dual web and integrated labels should
be fed paper end first.
• For best results when using the 250-sheet label tray, dual web and integrated labels should
be fed label end first.
When printing on card stock:
• From the operator panel or MarkVision Professional, set the Paper Type to Card Stock.
• Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the
printer.
• Do not use card stock that is creased. It may cause paper jams.
• To minimize curl, make sure the rear exit bin is open so the card stock feeds straight out the
back of the printer.
• We recommend the use of grain short card stock.
