Adhesive Label Specifications
Use the following guidelines when selecting labels:
•• The top sheet (printing surface) must be of copier quality and provide
good toner adhesion.
•• The carrier sheet must be compatible with the temperatures and
pressure of the fusing process, and must be coated for easy release of
the top sheet.
•• The adhesive must be stable at the 392° F (200° C) temperature
encountered for 0.1 second in the printer’s fusing process, and must
not produce emissions that exceed exposure levels or threshold limits
established by OSHA and other safety agencies. Adhesives must not
come into direct contact with any part of the printer.
•• Labels should be arranged on the carrier sheet so that any exposed
spaces run lengthwise down the sheet. Using label stock with spaces
between the horizontal rows of labels can result in labels peeling off
during printing, causing serious jamming and possible printer damage.
CAUTION
Hewlett-Packard does not recommend removing any labels from the
carrier sheet and then printing on the remaining labels.
Adhesive Must not be on any external surfaces of the label before, during, or after printing.
Label construction and die-cutting must not allow labels to peel off during transport,
printing, or fusing.
Caliper Must not exceed 0.007 in. (0.19 mm).
Curl In ream: flat within 0.2 in. (5 mm).
Electrical Surface Resistivity 2.0 to 15 x 10
10
ohm per square.
Electrical Volume Resistivity 1.2 to 15 x 10
11
ohm-cm.
Finishing Precision Cut sheet within +/- 0.03 in. (+/- 0.8 mm) of nominal and 0.20° square.
Fusing Compatibility All adhesives, carrier sheets, top sheets, and other materials used in label
construction must be compatible with the heat and pressure of the fusing process.
Materials must not discolor, melt, offset, or release hazardous emissions when
heated to 392° F (200° C) for 0.1 second.
Packaging Moisture-proof wrap to preserve properties.
Shelf Life One year, maximum, stored at 72° F (22° C) and 50% R.H.
