Labels and transparencies The printer will print on most types of labels and transparencies designed for use with a laser printer. Labels should have an adhesive which is acrylic-based since such material is more stable at the high temperatures in the fusing unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the printer, because the label stock may stick to the drum or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems. No adhesive should be exposed between the labels. Labels should be arranged so that they cover the entire length and width of the sheet. Using labels with spaces may result in labels peeling off and causing serious jams or print problems. All labels and transparencies used in this printer must be able to withstand a temperature of 200 degrees centigrade (392 degrees Fahrenheit) for a period of 0.1 seconds. Label and transparency sheets should not exceed the paper weight specifications described in this User's Guide. Labels and transparencies exceeding this specification may not feed or print properly and may cause damage to your printer. Transparencies and Labels can be fed from Tray 1 only and cannot be printed using the duplex unit. Types of labels and transparencies to avoid Do not use labels or transparencies that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape. Figure 1-11 Before using paper that has holes in it, such as organizer sheets, you must 'fan' the stack to avoid paper jams and misfeeds. Figure 1-12 ■ Avoid feeding labels with the carrier sheet exposed because your printer will be damaged. ■ When feeding transparencies, use the recommended type for laser printers. For detailed information on the specification of the proper transparencies to purchase, call your dealer or Brother Customer Service. Brother will not recommend particular labels or transparencies because the manufacturers may change the specifications. You are responsible for the quality and performance of the print media you use. 1 - 17 ABOUT THIS PRINTER

ABOUT THIS PRINTER
Labels and transparencies
The printer will print on most types of labels and transparencies designed for use with a laser printer.
Labels should have an adhesive which is acrylic-based since such material is more stable at the high
temperatures in the fusing unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the printer,
because the label stock may stick to the drum or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems. No
adhesive should be exposed between the labels. Labels should be arranged so that they cover the entire
length and width of the sheet. Using labels with spaces may result in labels peeling off and causing
serious jams or print problems.
All labels and transparencies used in this printer must be able to withstand a temperature of 200 degrees
centigrade (392 degrees Fahrenheit) for a period of 0.1 seconds.
Label and transparency sheets should not exceed the paper weight specifications described in this
User's Guide. Labels and transparencies exceeding this specification may not feed or print properly and
may cause damage to your printer.
Transparencies and Labels can be fed from Tray 1 only and cannot be printed using the duplex unit.
Types of labels and transparencies to avoid
Do not use labels or transparencies that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape.
Figure 1-11
Before using paper that has holes in it, such as organizer sheets, you must ‘fan’ the stack to avoid
paper jams and misfeeds.
Figure 1-12
Avoid feeding labels with the carrier sheet exposed because your printer will be damaged.
When feeding transparencies, use the recommended type for
laser
printers. For detailed
information on the specification of the proper transparencies to purchase, call your dealer or
Brother Customer Service.
Brother will not recommend
particular labels or transparencies because the manufacturers may
change the specifications. You are responsible for the quality and performance of the print media
you use.
