Printer specifications 164 • 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. • For best results when using the multipurpose feeder, dual web and integrated labels should be fed paper‑end first. • For best results when using the 250‑sheet label tray, dual web and integrated labels should be fed label‑end first. When printing on card stock: • From the operator panel or MarkVision Professional, set the Paper Type to Card Stock. • Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. • Do not use card stock that is creased. It may cause paper jams. • To minimize curl, make sure the rear exit bin is open so the card stock feeds straight out the back of the printer. • We recommend the use of grain short card stock. For more information, see "Maintenance procedures" on page 14. Optra N Limit label printing to occasional use of paper office labels designed for laser printers.
