Use paper labels only. Single-sided paper labels designed for laser printers are supported for occasional use. Only one optional drawer may be installed on the printer at a time. The maximum amount of paper that can be loaded depends on whether you have an optional 250- or 550-sheet tray. Vinyl, pharmacy, or dual-sided labels are not supported. Use paper labels only. Single-sided paper labels designed for laser printers are supported for occasional use. Feed paper into the manual feeder only to the point where its leading edge can contact the paper guides. Do not force the paper into the feeder. Paper characteristics The following paper characteristics affect print quality and reliability. Consider these characteristics when evaluating new paper stock. Weight The printer trays can automatically feed paper weights up to 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) grain long paper. The manual feeder can automatically feed paper weights up to 163 g/m2 (43 lb bond) grain long paper. Paper lighter than 60 g/m2 (16 lb) might not be stiff enough to feed properly, causing jams. For best performance, use 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) grain long paper. For paper smaller than 182 x 257 mm (7.2 x 10.1 in.), we recommend 90 g/m2 (24 lb) or heavier paper. Note: Duplex printing is supported only for 60-90 g/m2 (16-24 lb bond) paper. Paper and specialty media guide 49
