Labels: Special Considerations
The procedure for feeding labels is almost the same as for regular
paper. Keep in mind the following considerations:
n
Use a typical label stock such as Avery Label Stock 5160. Adhe-
sive label stock should have pressure-sensitive (peel-and-stick)
adhesive backing and should be 17-34 lbs (64 -128 g/m
2
).
n
The surface (print face) of the labels must be made of normal
paper with a matte-finish, similar to copy paper.
n
The label backing must be able to withstand the heat generated
by the fixing assembly (190° C/374° F).
n
Ensure that the label backing is not made of easily removable
coated paper.
n
Avoid using labels with exposed adhesive; it may stick to the print
drum or fuser roller, causing labels to peel off and damage the
printer.
n
Label data should be formatted within your application. Try print-
ing your data on a plain sheet of paper first to check placement.
This reduces the number of label sheets you use.
n
Before printing labels, disable the duplexer.
n
Load the labels lengthwise (long edge first), face-down, and with
the top of the page toward the rear of the printer.
Custom-Size Paper: Special Considerations
Custom-size paper is printed from the custom tray. See Chapter 6,
“Hardware Options‚" of your
Options guide for more information. Keep
in mind the following considerations:
n
Use only 17-28 lbs (64-105 g/m
2
) custom-size paper recom-
mended for laser printers.
n
Paper sizes for the custom tray are Letter, Executive, A4, A5, B4,
B5, Legal, 11"x17", A3, Statement, B4(ISO), and B5(ISO).
