Labels

In either the software program or the printer driver, select Labels as the media type, or configure
tray 1 or tray 2 for labels. See

Configuring trays

.

Verify that the labels’ adhesive material can tolerate temperatures of 190°C (374°F) for 0.1 second.

Verify that 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 printer components.

Do not re-feed a sheet of labels.

Verify that labels lie flat.

Do not use labels that are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.

Heavy paper

For information about which heavy paper is supported in each tray, see

Print-media specifications

In either the software program or the printer driver, select Heavy or Cardstock as the media type,
or print from a tray that is configured for heavy paper. Because this setting affects all print jobs, it
is important to return the printer back to its original settings after the job has been printed. See

Configuring trays

.

CAUTION

In general, do not use paper that is heavier than the media specification

recommended for this printer. Doing so can cause misfeeds, jams, reduced print quality, and
excessive mechanical wear.

Preprinted forms and letterhead

Forms and letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant inks that will not melt, vaporize, or release
hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of approximately 190°C
(374°F) for 0.1 second.

Inks must be nonflammable and should not adversely affect any printer rollers.

Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during
storage.

Before loading preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process,
wet ink can come off of preprinted paper.
