Printing on Special Paper Labels When printing labels, use the type mounted on a continuous backing sheet with sprocket holes for use with a tractor. Do not try to print labels as single sheets because labels on a shiny backing sheet may not feed properly. You can load labels from the front (push tractor or pull tractor) or bottom (pull tractor) paper slot; however, for best results, use the tractor in the pull-tractor position. You load labels the same way you load continuous paper, except you must set the paper-thickness lever to 2 before printing labels. See Loading paper with the pull tractor earlier in this chapter for details. 0t l CAUTION: l Never feed labels backward with the ALT + EJECT or TEAR OFF buttons. Labels can easily peel off the backing and cause a jam. l Because labels are sensitive to extreme temperature and humidity, always use them under normal operating conditions. l Do not leave labels loaded in the printer between jobs; they curl around the platen and may jam when you resume printing. l To remove labels from the paper path after you finish printing, tear off the labels at a point before the paper slot. Then use the PAPER FEED button to advance the remaining labels out of the printer. Paper Handling 2-25
