Paper and Other Media
Special Media Guidelines
Ensure instructions provided with the special paper are read and carried out. These guidelines
provide important information regarding how to achieve the highest print quality with special
papers.
Ø It is recommended that special paper types are fed one sheet at a time.
Ø Only use the special media recommended for use in laser printers.
Ø To prevent special media such as transparencies and label sheets sticking together,
remove them from the exit tray as they are printed.
Ø Place transparencies on a flat surface after removing them from the product.
Ø Do not leave transparencies in the paper cassette for long periods of time. Dust and dirt
may accumulate on the surface resulting in spotty printing.
Ø To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle transparency film and coated paper
carefully.
Ø To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight.
Ø Store unused media at temperatures between 15 to 30 degrees centigrade (59 and 86
degrees fahrenheit). The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%.
Ø Verify that the labels’ adhesive material can tolerate a fusing temperature of 200°C
(392
°F) for 0.1 second.
Ø Ensure 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 product components.
Ø Do not feed a sheet of labels through the product more than once. The adhesive backing
is designed for one pass through the product.
Ø Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or
otherwise damaged.
