When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
● Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at your printer’s fusing temperature of about 170°C
(338 °F) for 0.1 second.
● Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel o sheets that have
spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
– Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie at with no more than 13 mm (0.5 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 o during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to printer
components.
● Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only
a single pass through the printer.
● Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or damaged.
● Do not load paper that does not have space between labels running the same direction as the paper is
being fed. Otherwise, it could cause paper jams.
