Tips on using labels
• From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the labels
loaded in the tray.
• Print samples on labels being considered for use before buying large quantities.
• For more information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide on the Lexmark
Web site at
http://support.lexmark.com.
• Use labels designed specifically for laser printers.
• Do not use labels with slick backing material.
• Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.
• Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets
also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and toner cartridge
warranties.
• Before loading labels on the tray, flex and fan labels to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a level surface.
Tips on using letterhead
