Labels
Note
To print labels, Hewlett-Packard recommends configuring Tray 1 as
a cassette and setting the tray’s media type to LABELS in the printer
control panel.
When printing labels, use the following guidelines:
• Verify that the label’s adhesive material can tolerate temperatures of
190° C (374° F) for 0.1 second.
• Verify that adhesive material is not exposed between the labels.
Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which
can cause printer jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage
to printer components.
• Do not re-feed a sheet of labels.
• Verify that labels lie flat.
• Do not use labels that are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
Preprinted forms and letterhead
Observe the following guidelines for best results with preprinted forms
and letterhead:
• Forms and letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant inks that
will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when
subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of approximately
190° C (374° F) for 0.1 second.
• Inks must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect any
printer rollers.
• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof
wrapping to prevent changes during storage.
• Before you load preprinted paper such as forms and letterhead,
verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet
ink can come off the preprinted paper.
