Media type Guidelines Transparencies • To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers. • Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand 180° C (356° F), the machine's fusing temperature. • Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine. • Do not leave them in the paper tray for long periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing. • To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully. • To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight. • Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges. Caution Recommended media: Transparency for a Color Laser Printers produced by HP, Xerox and 3M. It is not recommended to use paperbacked transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334, which can cause a jam or be scratched. Labels • To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser printers. • When selecting labels, consider the following factors: - Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 180° C (356° F), the machine's fusing temperature. - Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. - Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any direction. - Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. • Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine components. • Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine. • Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged. Media type Card stock or custom-sized materials Preprinted paper Guidelines • Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm (3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long. • In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material. • Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine's fusing temperature of 180° C (356° F) for 0.1 second. • Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect printer rollers. • Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage. • Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality. 5.5

Transparencies
To avoid damaging the machine, use only
transparencies designed for use in laser
printers.
Transparencies used in the machine must be
able to withstand 180° C (356° F), the machine’s
fusing temperature.
Place them on a flat surface after removing
them from the machine.
Do not leave them in the paper tray for long
periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate
on them, resulting in spotty printing.
To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints,
handle them carefully.
To avoid fading, do not expose printed
transparencies to prolonged sunlight.
Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled,
curled, or have any torn edges.
Caution
Recommended media: Transparency for a
Color Laser Printers produced by HP, Xerox
and 3M.
It is not recommended to use paperbacked
transparencies such as Xerox 3R91334,
which can cause a jam or be scratched.
Labels
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels
designed for use in laser printers.
When selecting labels, consider the following
factors:
-
Adhesives: The adhesive material should be
stable at 180° C (356° F), the machine’s
fusing temperature.
-
Arrangement: Only use labels with no
exposed backing between them. Labels can
peel off sheets that have spaces between the
labels, causing serious jams.
-
Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with
no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any
direction.
-
Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles,
bubbles, or other indications of separation.
Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive
material between labels. Exposed areas can
cause labels to peel off during printing, which
can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can
also cause damage to machine components.
Do not run a sheet of labels through the
machine more than once. The adhesive backing
is designed for only a single pass through the
machine.
Do not use labels that are separating from the
backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or
otherwise damaged.
Media type
Guidelines
Card stock or
custom-sized
materials
Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm
(3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long.
In the software application, set margins at least
6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of
the material.
Preprinted
paper
Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant
ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release
hazardous emissions when subjected to the
machine’s fusing temperature of 180° C (356° F)
for 0.1 second.
Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and
should not adversely affect printer rollers.
Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a
moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes
during storage.
Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms
and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is
dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come
off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.
