Width: 89-297 mm (3.5-11.7 in.) Length: 99-432 mm (3.9-17 in.) Weight: Up to 216 g/m2 Card stock and label guidelines When printing on labels: • Set the Paper Type to Labels from the printer driver. • Use standard‑size products (either A4 or Letter). • Do not use label sheets with a slick backing material. • Do not print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the die-cut. • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a paper jam. Partial sheets will also contaminate your printer and your cartridge with adhesive, and could void your printer and cartridge warranties. • Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 180°C (356°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. • Verify that your label adhesive material can tolerate a fusing temperature of 180°C (356°F) for 0.1 second. • Use labels that can withstand pressure of 25 pounds per square inch (psi). • Do not print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label. • Do not use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. We recommend zone coating of the adhesive at least 1 mm (0.040 in.) away from edges. Adhesive material will contaminate your printer and could void your warranty. • If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 3‑mm (0.125‑in.) strip should be removed on the leading and driver edge, and a non‑oozing adhesive should be used. • Remove a 3‑mm (0.125‑in.) strip from the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling inside the printer. • Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes. • Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive. • Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged. • Do not load a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. • Load labels into the manual bypass feeder with the recommended print side faceup and the top edge going in first. When printing on card stock: • Set the Paper Type to Card Stock from the printer driver. • Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting introduces semi‑liquid and volatile components into the printer.

Card stock and label guidelines
When printing on labels:
•
Set the Paper Type to Labels from the printer driver.
•
Use standard
‑
size products (either A4 or Letter).
•
Do
not
use label sheets with a slick backing material.
•
Do
not
print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the die-cut.
•
Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a paper jam. Partial
sheets will also contaminate your printer and your cartridge with adhesive, and could void your printer and cartridge
warranties.
•
Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 180°C (356°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or
releasing hazardous emissions.
•
Verify that your label adhesive material can tolerate a fusing temperature of 180°C (356°F) for 0.1 second.
•
Use labels that can withstand pressure of 25 pounds per square inch (psi).
•
Do
not
print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
•
Do
not
use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. We recommend zone coating of the adhesive
at least 1 mm (0.040 in.) away from edges. Adhesive material will contaminate your printer and could void your
warranty.
•
If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 3
‑
mm (0.125
‑
in.) strip should be removed on the leading and driver
edge, and a non
‑
oozing adhesive should be used.
•
Remove a 3
‑
mm (0.125
‑
in.) strip from the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling inside the printer.
•
Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes.
•
Do
not
use labels that have exposed adhesive.
•
Do
not
use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
•
Do
not
load a sheet of labels through the machine more than once.
•
Load labels into the manual bypass feeder with the recommended print side faceup and the top edge going in first.
When printing on card stock:
•
Set the Paper Type to Card Stock from the printer driver.
•
Do
not
use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting
introduces semi
‑
liquid and volatile components into the printer.
