• To avoid fading, do not expose the printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight. • Store unused materials at temperatures between 59o F and 86o F (15o C to 30o C). The relative humidity should be between 10% and 70%. • The laser printing process heats paper to high temperatures of 180° C (356° F). Use only paper able to withstand these temperatures without discoloring, bleeding, or releasing hazardous emissions. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to determine whether the paper you have chosen is acceptable for laser printers. • Verify that your label adhesive material can tolerate a fusing temperature of 180o C (356o F) for 0.1 second. • Make sure there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also damage machine components. • Do not load a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only one pass through the machine. • Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
