A fuser equipped with a dry web cleaner may be required for label applications to optimize feed reliability. If you print large quantities of labels or other glossy print media, then install a dry web cleaner upgrade kit (P/N 40X1856). Contact your local service representative for ordering information. When printing on labels: • From the printer control panel, set Paper Type to Labels in the Paper Menu. For vinyl and other heavy labels, set Labels Weight (under the Paper Weight menu) to Heavy, and set Labels Texture (under the Paper Texture menu) to Smooth. • Do not load labels together with paper or transparencies in the same paper tray. Combining print materials can cause feeding problems. • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a paper jam. Adhesive material may contaminate your printer. It could also void your printer and cartridge warranties. Print on sheets with more number of labels to improve registration. When printing on card stock: • Set Paper Type to Card Stock in the Paper Menu. • Do not use creased card stock. It may cause paper jams.
