Adhesive-Backed Labels
The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come into con-
tact with any part of the printer. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage
the printer.
Label paper must be manually fed.
Label paper has a structure comprising
three layers, as shown in
Figure B.1
. The
top sheet is printed on. The adhesive
layer consists of pressure-sensitive
adhesives. The carrier sheet (also called
the linear or backing sheet) holds the
labels until use. Due to the complexity of
its composition, adhesive-backed label
paper is particularly likely to give trou-
ble in printing.
Adhesive label paper must be entirely
covered by its top sheet, with no spaces
between the individual labels. Labels
with spaces in between are apt to peel off,
causing serious jam problems.
Some label paper is manufactured with
an extra margin of top sheet around the
edge. Do not remove the extra top sheet
from the carrier sheet until after print-
ing is finished.
