Limit label printing to occasional use of paper office labels designed for
laser printers. We do not recommend using vinyl or polyester labels.
The Lexmark E320 and Lexmark E322 support stocks up to
43 lb (163 g/m
2
). The automatic paper feeder can hold up to 10 sheets of
card stock or labels.
The following table lists the maximum basis weights supported by Tray 1
and the manual sheet feeder. More detailed specifications appear on the
following page.

Maintenance procedures
If the print quality begins to degrade when printing sheets of labels, we suggest you follow the three cleaning steps below:
1
Print 5 sheets of paper.
2
Wait approximately 5 seconds.
3
Print 5 more sheets of paper.
To maintain printer feeding reliability, repeat this cleaning process every time you replace the print cartridge, more often
with some media. Failure to follow maintenance procedures could cause jamming, poor print quality, feeding problems, and
fuser problems.
