Printing on labels
Follow the guidelines here for using labels. See
“Print media specifications” on page 109
for
more details.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended for laser printers. To prevent serious
jams, always use tray 1 to print labels and always use the straight-through paper path. Never print
on the same sheet of labels more than once or print on a partial sheet of labels.
●
Avoid labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled or damaged in any
way.
●
Place labels only in tray 1 with the side to be printed up and the top, short edge in first.
●
Choose Labels as the Type (Windows) or the Paper (Mac OS 9.x) from the Print dialog box
or the printer driver. For Mac OS X, click Printer Features on the Print dialog box, and then
click Media type.
●
Remove label sheets as they print from the straight-through paper path to prevent them from
sticking together.
●
If a sheet of labels jams in the printer, see
