•
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that
folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machine’s
fusing temperature about 170°C (338 °F) for 0.1 second. The extra flaps
and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even
damage the fuser.
•
For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm (0.6
inches) from the edges of the envelope.
•
Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
Transparency
To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use
in laser printers.
•
Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand the
machine’s fusing temperature.
•
Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.
•
Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long periods of
time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.
•
To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.
•
To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged
sunlight.
•
Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn
edges.
•
Do not use transparencies that separates from the backing sheet.
•
To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the
printed sheets stack up as they are begin printed out.
•
Recommended media: Transparency for a color laser printer by Xerox,
such as 3R 91331(A4), 3R 2780(Letter).
Labels
Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing down.
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser
machines.
•
When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
-
Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your
machine’s fusing temperature about 170°C (338 °F) for 0.1 second.
-
Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between
them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the
labels, causing serious jams.
-
Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm
(0.5 inches) of curl in any direction.
-
Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
•
Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.
Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can
cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to
machine components.
•
Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The
adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the
machine.
•
Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are
wrinkled, bubbled, or damaged.
•
Do not load paper that does not have space between labels running the
same direction as the paper is being fed. Otherwise, it could cause
paper jams.
