Print on Labels

You can print labels from the following trays:

• Standard Trays 1–4

• Bypass Tray

High Capacity Feeder does not support labels.

Guidelines for Printing Labels

• Use labels designed for laser printing.

• Do not use vinyl labels.

• Do not feed a sheet of labels through the printer more than once.

• Do not use dry gum labels.

• Print only on one side of the sheet of labels. Use full sheet labels only.

• Store unused labels flat in their original packaging. Leave the sheets of labels inside the original packaging until ready to use. Return any unused sheets of labels to the original packaging and reseal it.

• Do not store labels in extremely dry or humid conditions or extremely hot or cold conditions. Storing them in extreme conditions can cause print-quality problems or cause them to jam in the printer.

• Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause labels to curl and jam in the printer.

• In the print driver software, select Label as the paper type.

• Before loading labels, remove all other paper from the tray.

Warning: Do not use any sheet where labels are missing, curled, or pulled away from the backing sheet. It could damage the printer.
