Page Margins
Margins are set through your application. Some applications allow
you to set custom page sizes and margins while others have only
standard page sizes and margins from which to choose. If you
choose a standard format, you may lose part of your image (due to
imageable area constraints). If you can custom-size your page, use
exactly those sizes given for the imageable area.
Media Types and Weights
Your printer supports labels, paper, postcards, and transparencies in
a number of sizes. Although the printer is not specifically designed for
envelope printing, you may want to test print a standard envelope to
see if the print quality is suitable for your needs. See “Envelopes:
Special Considerations” in chapter 2, “Consumables,” of the
Opera-
tion manual for more information on printing envelopes.

adhesive backing.

The printer supports 17-34 lb (64-128 g/m

tray.
