Label
The basic rule for printing on adhesive label is that the adhesive must never come into contact with
any part of the printer. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the printer.
Label paper must be manually fed.
Label paper has a structure comprising three layers, as shown below. The top sheet is printed on. The
adhesive layer consists of pressure-sensitive adhesives. The carrier sheet (also called the linear or
backing sheet) holds the label until use. Due to the complexity of its composition, adhesive-backed
label paper is particularly likely to give trouble in printing.

Adhesive-back label
Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no spaces between the individual
labels. Labels with spaces in between are apt to peel off, causing serious jam problems.
Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet around the edge. Do not remove
the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet until after printing is finished.
