Printing on Labels Adhesive label stock has pressure-sensitive
(peel and stick) adhesive backing. The procedure for feeding labels
is almost the same as for regular paper; however, you must use the
face-up output tray and load label-side down to prevent labels from
coming loose from the backing sheet. Use only labels
recommended for laser printers. Follow the specifications for labels
contained in the “Technical Specifications” appendix.
Label data should be formatted within your software application
program. Try printing your data on a plain sheet of paper first to
check its placement. This reduces the number of label sheets you
use.
Printing on Transparencies Use only transparencies recom-
mended for use in laser printers and always use the face-up output
tray. The transparency film should be able to withstand
temperatures up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit (93 degrees Celsius.)
Transparencies are especially sensitive to a dirty paper path. If
shadows are apparent either on the top or the bottom of the sheets,
produce a cleaning page to clean the printer’s rollers (see the
“Printer Maintenance” chapter).
NOTE: You should remove each transparency from the output
tray immediately after printing to prevent jams of
subsequent sheets.
Printing on Envelopes Envelopes may be printed from either the
standard tray or the optional envelope cassette. If you use the
standard tray, feed only one envelope at a time. If you use the
envelope cassette, load envelopes as shown in figure 2.7, that is,
face down with flap-side of the envelope toward the control panel
side of the printer.
