Using Your Printer
•
Waste strips prevent you from printing too close to the edge
of the sheet.
•
Print should be placed at least 1 mm (0.04 in.) from die cuts
and perforations.
•
We recommend zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm
(0.04 in.) away from edges to control adhesive
contamination.
•
If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 3 mm
(0.125 in.) strip should be removed on the leading and
driver edge, and a non-oozing adhesive should be used.
•
If the labels are vinyl, remove a 3 mm (0.125 in.) strip from
the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling in the fuser.
•
Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing
bar codes.
For more information, refer to the Card Stock & Labels Guide, which
is available from Lexmark.
Card Stock Guidelines
Card stock is single ply, and has a large array of properties. The
orientation of paper fibers, moisture content, thickness, and
texture can all affect printing on card stock. See page 125 for
information on the preferred weight for the grain direction of print
materials.
When printing on card stock, be sure to select Card Stock in the
PAPER TYPE menu in the PAPER MENU .
Preprinting, perforation, and creasing can significantly affect the
print quality. Preprinting introduces semi-liquid and volatile
components in the printer. Perforation and creasing of forms may
cause nesting or interlocking that leads to paper handling or
jamming problems.
After printing approximately 10,000 page sides of card stock (or
each time you replace the print cartridge), complete the following
steps to maintain printer feeding reliability:
