50 Paper Handling
Labels
You can load up to 18 mm thickness of labels into the MP tray at
a time. However, you may need to feed some labels one sheet at
a time, or load them manually.
Note:
❏ Duplex printing is not available for labels.
❏ Depending on the quality of labels, the printing environment, or the
printing procedure, labels might be wrinkled. Make a trial print run
before you print on a lot of labels.
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 346.
Note:
❏ You should only use labels designed for monochrome laser printers
or monochrome 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.
