the media path.
Printing Labels
Adhesive label stock has pressure-sensitive (peel and stick) adhesive
backing. The procedure for feeding labels is almost the same as for
regular paper; however, you must use the face-up output bin.
Recommended labels have the following specifications:
n Type: Use only labels recommended for laser printers, such
as Avery 5260. Adhesive label stock should have pressure-
sensitive (peel-and-stick) adhesive backing.
n
Weight: The printer supports 17-34 lb (64-128 g/m 2 ) labels
when using manual feed.
» Note: Label data should be formatted within your application. Try printing
your data on a plain sheet of paper first to check placement. This reduces
the number of label sheets you use.
