Printing on transparencies or labels
Use only transparencies and labels that are recommended for use in laser printers, such as HP transparency
film and HP LaserJet labels. See
Printer media considerations on page 11 for more information.
CAUTION: Be sure to set the correct media type in the printer settings as instructed below. The printer
adjusts the fuser temperature according to the media type setting. When printing on special media such as
transparencies or labels, this adjustment prevents the fuser from damaging the media as it passes through
the printer.
CAUTION: Inspect the media to make sure that it is not wrinkled or curled and that it does not have any torn
edges or missing labels.
1. Load a single page in the priority feed slot or load multiple pages in the main input tray. Make sure that
the top of the media is forward and the side to be printed (rough side) is facing up.
2. Adjust the media guides.
3. Access the printer properties (or printing preferences in Windows 2000 and XP). See
Printer properties
(driver) on page 8 for instructions.
4. On the Paper/Quality tab, choose the correct media type.
5. Print the document.
