Tips on using envelopes Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities. When printing on envelopes: • Feed envelopes from the manual feeder or optional multipurpose feeder. • Set the Paper Type to Envelope, and select the envelope size. • Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or releasing hazardous emissions. • For the best performance, use envelopes made from 60 g/m2 (16 lb bond) paper. Use up to 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond) weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. All-cotton envelopes must not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) weight. • Use only new envelopes. • To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that: - Have excessive curl or twist - Are stuck together or damaged in any way - Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing - Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars - Have an interlocking design - Have postage stamps attached - Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position - Have bent corners - Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes • Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes. Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes. Tips on using paper labels Print samples on the labels being considered for use before buying large quantities. Note: Use only paper label sheets. When printing on labels: • From MarkVision Professional, the printer software, or the printer control panel, set the Paper Type to Labels. • Use only letter-, A4-, or legal-size label sheets. • Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to verify that: - The labels can withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. - Label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats can withstand up to 25 psi (172 kPa) pressure without delaminating, oozing around the edges, or releasing hazardous fumes. • Do not use labels with slick backing material. • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and cartridge warranties. • Do not use labels with exposed adhesive. • Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.

weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. All-cotton envelopes must not exceed
90 g/m
2
(24 lb bond) weight.
•
Use only new envelopes.
•
To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:
–
Have excessive curl or twist
–
Are stuck together or damaged in any way
–
Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
–
Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars
–
Have an interlocking design
–
Have postage stamps attached
–
Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position
–
Have bent corners
–
Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes
•
Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes.
Note:
A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes.
Tips on using paper labels
Print samples on the labels being considered for use before buying large quantities.
Note:
Use only paper label sheets.
When printing on labels:
•
From MarkVision Professional, the printer software, or the printer control panel, set the Paper Type to Labels.
•
Use only letter-, A4-, or legal-size label sheets.
•
Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to verify that:
–
The labels can withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or
releasing hazardous emissions.
–
Label adhesives, face sheet (printable stock), and topcoats can withstand up to 25 psi (172 kPa) pressure
without delaminating, oozing around the edges, or releasing hazardous fumes.
•
Do not use labels with slick backing material.
•
Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets
also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and cartridge warranties.
•
Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.
•
Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
