Labels
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 rear output bin.
Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once or print on a
partial sheet of labels.
Label Construction
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
! Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200° C
(392° F), the printer’s fusing temperature.
! Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between
them. Labels can peel off sheets with spaces between the labels,
causing serious jams.
! Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than
13 mm (.5 in.) of curl in any direction.
! Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
For more information, see Printing on Labels.
Note In the printer driver select Optimize for: and choose labels in the
drop-down box (see Optimizing for Media Types). For non-Windows
operating systems, this feature is also available in HP Web JetAdmin.
