MEDIA TYPE GUIDELINES Labels • To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser machines. - When selecting labels, consider the following factors: - Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your machine's fusing temperature. Check your machine's specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 86. - 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 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. Card stock or custom-sized materials • Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm wide or 356 mm long. • In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm 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 printer's fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine's specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 86. • 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. CHANGING THE SIZE OF THE PAPER IN THE PAPER TRAY To load longer sizes of paper, such as Legal-sized paper, you need to adjust the paper guides to extend the paper tray. 1 Paper length guide 2 Support guide 3 Guide lock 4 Paper width guides 1. Press and hold the guide lock, and slide the paper length guide to locate it in the correct paper size slot. It is preset to Letter or A4 size depending on the country. 2. After inserting paper into the tray, adjust the support guide so that it lightly touches the paper stack. 3. Squeeze the paper width guides, as shown and slide them to the stack of paper until it lightly touches the side of the stack. 36 _Loading originals and print media 4. Load the paper into the tray.
