Media specifications Labels Card stock Width: 76.2-139.7 mm (3-8.5 in.) Length: 127-355.6 mm (5-14 in.) Weight: 160-220 g/m2 160-300 g/m2 (Vinyl) Thickness: Up to 0.25 mm Smoothness: 50-300 Sheffield* * 50-150 Sheffield is optimal. This printer may support labels with smoothness of less than 50 Sheffield such as coated paper, polyester, vinyl, or other synthetic facestock paper. Using media higher than 200 Sheffield could result in print quality degradation. Width: 76.2-139.7 mm (3-8.5 in.) Length: 127-355.6 mm (5-14 in.) Weight: Up to 216 g/m2 Use only materials recommended for use with laser printers. To prevent specialty media sheets from sticking together, remove each sheet from the exit bin as it is printed. Card stock and label guidelines When printing on labels: • Set Paper Type to Labels from the printer driver. • Use standard-size products (either A4 or Letter). • Do not use label sheets with a slick backing material. • Do not print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the die-cut. • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a paper jam. Partial sheets will also contaminate your printer and your cartridge with adhesive, and could void your printer and cartridge warranties. • Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 180°C (356°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. • Verify that your label adhesive material can tolerate a fusing temperature of 180°C (356°F) for 0.1 second. • Use labels that can withstand pressure of 25 pounds per square inch (psi). • Do not print within 1 mm (0.040 in.) of the edge of the label, of the perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
