Transparency (overhead projection film) Transparency must be able to withstand the heat of fusing during the printing process. It should satisfy the conditions in the table below. Item Tolerance of heat Thickness Material Dimensional accuracy Squareness of corners Specification Must tolerate at least 190°C (374°F) 0.100 to 0.110 mm (3.9 to 4.3 mils) Polyester ±0.7 mm (±0.0276 in) 90° ±0.2° To avoid trouble, transparency must be delivered face-up. If transparency jams frequently, pull the top of the sheet very gently as it leaves the machine. 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 machine. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the machine. Label paper must be manually fed. Label paper has a structure comprising 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. Appendix-6 ADVANCED OPERATION GUIDE
