ADVANCED OPERATION GUIDE
Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably, 
special paper is more likely than white bond paper to give trouble during 
printing. No liability will be assumed if moisture and so forth given off during 
printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator.
NOTE: 
Before purchasing any type of special paper, test a sample on the 
machine and check that printing quality is satisfactory.
Transparency
Transparencies must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the 
printing process. The recommended transparency product is 3M CG3700 
(Letter, A4).
Transparencies must be placed on the MP tray with the long edge towards 
the printer. To avoid problems, stack transparencies face up on the face-
up tray option.
When unloading transparencies (e.g., for clearing jams), hold them 
carefully by the edges to avoid leaving fingerprints on them.
Labels
Labels must be fed from the MP Tray.
The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must 
never come into contact with any part of the machine. Adhesive paper 
sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the machine.
Label paper has a structure 
comprising of three layers, as 
shown in the diagram. 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 labels 
until used. Due to the complexity 
of its composition, adhesive-
backed label paper is particularly likely to give printing problems.
