labels You must use the tractor as a pull tractor to print on labels. Keep these tips in mind: Choose labels mounted on a continuous backing sheet with sprocket holes made for use with a tractor. Do not print labels as single sheets, because the shiny backing sheet almost always slips a little. You load labels the same way you load continuous paper, except that the paper-thickness lever should be set to 1. See page 2-13 for loading instructions. Because labels are especially sensitive to temperature and humidity, use them only under normal operating conditions. Make sure the printing stays entirely within the printable area. (See the Appendix for specifications.) Do not leave labels loaded in the printer between jobs; they curl around the platen and may jam when you resume printing. To remove the labels from the printer, tear off the fresh supply at the rear of the printer; then press LF/FF to advance the remaining labels out of the printer. Caution: Never feed labels backward through the printer; they can easily peel off the backing and jam the printer. If a label does become stuck in the printer, contact your dealer. 2-20 Using the Printer

labels
You must use the tractor as a pull tractor to print on labels.
Keep these tips in mind:
Choose labels mounted on a continuous backing sheet with
sprocket holes made for use with a tractor. Do not print
labels as single sheets, because the shiny backing sheet
almost always slips a little.
You load labels the same way you load continuous paper,
except that the paper-thickness lever should be set to 1. See
page 2-13 for loading instructions.
Because labels are especially sensitive to temperature and
humidity, use them only under normal operating
conditions.
Make sure the printing stays entirely within the printable
area. (See the Appendix for specifications.)
Do not leave labels loaded in the printer between jobs; they
curl around the platen and may jam when you resume
printing.
To remove the labels from the printer, tear off the fresh
supply at the rear of the printer; then press
LF/FF
to
advance the remaining labels out of the printer.
Caution:
Never feed labels backward through the printer; they can easily
peel off the backing and jam the printer. If a label does become
stuck in the printer, contact your dealer.
