Media and tray 2. Menu overview and basic setup 44 • To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight. Labels • Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges. To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser printers. • Do not use transparencies that separate from the backing sheet. • To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the printed sheets stack up as they are being printed out.
Media and tray - Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. • Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams.
