Label paper has a structure comprising of three layers, as shown in the diagram. The top sheet is printed on. The adhesive layer consists of pressure-sensitive adhesives. Top sheet (white bond paper) Adhesive The carrier sheet (also called Carrier sheet the linear or backing sheet) holds the labels until used. Due to the complexity of its composition, adhesive- backed label paper is particularly likely to give printing problems. Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no spaces between the individual labels. Labels with spaces in between are liable to peel off, causing serious paper jam problems. Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet around the edge. Do not remove the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet until after printing is finished. Acceptable Unacceptable Top sheet Carrier sheet The table below lists the specifications for adhesive label paper. Item Weight of top sheet Composite weight Thickness of top sheet Composite thickness Moisture content Specification 44 to 74 g/m² (12 to 20 lb/ream) 104 to 151 g/m² (28 to 40 lb/ream) 0.086 to 0.107 mm (3.9 to 4.2 mils) 0.115 to 0.145 mm (4.5 to 5.7 mils) 4 to 6 % (composite) Postcards Up to 10 postcards can be loaded at a time. Fan the stack of postcards and align the edges before loading them in the MP tray. Make sure the postcards you are going to set are not curled. Feeding curled postcards may cause paper jams. Some postcards have rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper is cut). In this case, put the postcards on a flat place and rub the edges with, for example, a ruler to smooth them. 1-8 Paper Handling
