Optra S
Card stock and label guidelines
You can use many labels designed for laser printers with your Optra S printer. When printing on labels, use the printer
operator panel to set the Paper Type to Labels in the Paper Menu. For vinyl and other heavy labels, set the Labels Weight
(under the Paper Weight menu) to Heavy, and set the Labels Texture (under the Paper Texture menu) to Smooth.
Do not load labels together with paper or transparencies in the same paper tray. Combining print materials can cause
feeding problems.
The table on
page 128
lists the print material specifications for card stock and labels. The information in these tables is
intended to convey general guidelines for tray and drawer selection. The material type, rigidity, sizing, perforations, die-
cuts, surface, and so on influence the performance reliability.
The duplex option supports all paper weights and types that the printer supports, except for transparencies and envelopes.
Duplexing of specially designed labels is supported in the Optra S1855 printer.
You may notice skew or print registration problems if you feed materials over 135 g/m
2
from the multipurpose feeder or the
optional 250-sheet drawer. You may notice similar problems if you feed materials over 176 g/m
2
from the primary 250-sheet
tray or the optional 500-sheet drawer.
When feeding labels, the number of labels per sheet can affect registration more than basis weight. Typically, the more
labels per sheet, the better the registration.
