Label construction

When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:

Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), which is the printer fusing
temperature.

Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets
with spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 in) of curl in any direction.

Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.

NOTE:

Choose labels in the printer driver (see

Printer drivers on page 7

).

Transparencies

Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand 200°C (392°F), which is the printer fusing
temperature.

CAUTION:

To avoid damaging the printer, use only transparencies recommended for use in

HP LaserJet printers, such as HP-brand transparencies. (For ordering information, see
