The following table lists the print material specifications for the special card stock and label trays, as well as guidelines
for the tray position (upper or lower drawer). This information is intended to convey general guidelines for tray and
drawer selection. We recommend that you test your selected print material to determine the best tray and drawer
selection for your application. The material type, rigidity, sizing, perforations, die-cuts, and surface influence printing
reliability. Contact your point of purchase for more information on the optional trays available for your printer.
Note: If you use materials with a weight over 135 g/m

(36 lb bond), print registration and skew may be
