CAUTION CAUTION Labels To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended for use in laser printers. If you have problems printing labels, use Tray 1 and open the rear output bin. Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once. Label Construction When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component: q Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 392° F (200° C), the printer's maximum temperature. q Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off of sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. q Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 0.5 in (13 mm) of curl in any direction. q Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. Transparencies Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand 392° F (200° C), the printer's maximum temperature. For best results, close the rear output bin to print transparencies to the top output bin. To avoid damaging the printer, use only transparencies recommended for use in laser printers. If you have problems printing transparencies, use Tray 1. Vellum Vellum is special lightweight paper similar to parchment. Print vellum from Tray 1 only, and open the rear output bin. Do not print on both sides of vellum. Vellum used in the printer must be able to withstand 392° F (200° C), the printer's maximum temperature. 1-18 Printer Description EN
