Paper Handling 44
EPSON AcuLaser C3800 User's Guide
When loading labels, you should make paper settings as shown below:
❏ Make settings on the Basic Settings in the printer driver.
❏ You can also make these settings on the Tray Menu in the control panel. See "Tray
Menu" on page 172.
Note:
❏ You should only use labels designed for laser printers or plain-paper copiers.
❏ To prevent the label adhesive from coming into contact with printer parts, always use labels that
completely cover the backing sheet, with no gaps between the individual labels.
❏ Press a sheet of paper on top of each sheet of labels. If the paper sticks, do not use those labels
in your printer.
❏ You may have to make the setting Thick* for Paper Type in the Setup Menu.
* When using especially thick labels, set Paper Type to ExtraThk.
