A liner should bend easily and go back to its original flat state when released.

Note: If your printer is not listed here, then contact your Lexmark representative to verify which method your printer uses to separate sheets of labels.

Label components
Labels are composed of three basic parts: the liner, the adhesive, and the face sheet. Labels may also have topcoats
that affect printing. Choosing appropriate materials for each of these label components will help ensure reliable printing.
Liners
The
liner
, also known as the
carrier
or
backing
, is the material onto which the label is attached. The liner carries the
label through the printer and directly affects feed reliability. Liner weights and construction vary based on the printable
face stock used. For more information, see “Face sheet (printable stock)” on page 25.

laser printers (50 or more pages per minute) may not produce acceptable results.
A liner should bend easily and go back to its original flat state when released. If the form remains bent, then it may
cause paper jams or damage to the edge of the sheet, particularly in earlier printer models using a corner buckler rather
than an auto compensator to separate the sheets. The following table shows which printers use a corner buckler and
which use an auto compensator.
Note:
If your printer is not listed here, then contact your Lexmark representative to verify which method your
printer uses to separate sheets of labels.
