Labels
Select the type of label that you are using from the Print dialog box or the printer driver.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels that are recommended for laser
printers. To prevent serious jams, always use Tray 1 or Tray 2 to print on labels. Never print
on the same sheet of labels more than once or print on a partial sheet of labels.
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 210°C (410°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: Before printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inch) of curl in any
direction.
Condition: Do not use labels that have wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.
Transparencies
Use only Tray 1 or Tray 2 to print on transparencies. Select Transparencies from the Print dialog
box or the printer driver.
The printer supports printing on color transparencies. Use only transparencies that are
recommended for use in laser printers.
Transparencies that are used in the printer must be able to withstand 210°C (410°F), which is the
printer fusing temperature.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the printer, use only transparencies that are recommended
for use in laser printers.
