Special Paper Adhesive-Backed Labels The basic rule for printing on adhesive labels is that the adhesive must never come into contact with any part of the printer. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the printer. Be sure to feed label paper from the MP tray. Feeding label paper from a paper cassette may cause printer failure. Note Label paper has a structure comprised of three layers, as shown in the figure below. 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 trouble in printing. Top sheet (white bond paper) Adhesive Carrier sheet 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 paper 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 printing is finished. Acceptable Unacceptable Top sheet Carrier sheet 2-8
