• Do not use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. We recommend zone coating of the adhesive
at least 1 mm (0.040 in.) away from edges. Adhesive material will contaminate your printer and could void your
warranty.
• If zone coating of the adhesive is not possible, a 3‑mm (0.125‑in.) strip should be removed on the leading and driver
edge, and a non‑oozing adhesive should be used.
• Remove a 3‑mm (0.125‑in.) strip from the leading edge to prevent labels from peeling inside the printer.
• Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes.
• Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive.
• For best results when using the multipurpose feeder, dual web and integrated labels should be fed paper‑end first.
• For best results when using the 250‑sheet label tray, dual web and integrated labels should be fed label‑end first.
When printing on card stock:
• From the operator panel or MarkVision Professional, set the Paper Type to Card Stock.
• Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer.
• Do not use card stock that is creased. It may cause paper jams.
• To minimize curl, make sure the rear exit bin is open so the card stock feeds straight out the back of the printer.
• We recommend the use of grain short card stock.
