When printing on labels:
• Set the Paper Type to Labels from the printer driver, in the Local Printer Setup Utility, or from
MarkVision.
• You may feed vinyl labels from the 250-sheet tray and the multipurpose feeder.
• Do not load labels together with paper or transparencies in the same paper source.
• Do not use label sheets with a slick backing material.
• Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the die cut.
• Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a
jam. Partial sheets also contaminate your printer and your cartridge with adhesive, and could
void your printer and cartridge warranties.
• Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 205°C (401°F) without sealing, excessive
curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions.
• Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 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 (0.04 in.) away from edges. Adhesive material
contaminates 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.
Printer maintenance when printing on labels
After continuously printing approximately 10,000 pages of labels (or each time you replace the print
cartridge), complete the following steps to maintain printer feeding reliability:
1 Print 5 sheets of paper.
2 Wait approximately 5 seconds.
3 Print 5 more sheets of paper.
