Guidelines for Labels
■Do not use vinyl labels.
■Do not use any labels on a sheet where items are missing; it may damage printer
components.
■Store unused labels flat in their original packaging. Leave the product inside the original
packaging until ready to use. Return any unused product to the original packaging and
reseal it for protection.
■Do not store labels in extremely dry or humid conditions or extremely hot or cold
conditions. Storing them in extreme conditions may cause print quality problems or cause
them to jam in the printer.
■Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause the labels
to curl and jam the printer.
■Print only on one side of the sheet of labels.
Printing Labels
If your application has a setting for labels, use it as a template. Labels can be printed from any
tray.
1. Insert the labels into a tray:
Tray 1 (MPT)
■Insert the label sheets long-edge feed (recommended) and facedown into
Tray 1 (MPT). Place the top of the page toward the front of the printer.
