Lexmark MX710, MX711, MX810, MX811, and MX812

The Lexmark MX710, MX711, MX810, MX811, and MX812 printer models print on many labels designed for use with
laser printers. However the MX71x, MX81x, and MS71x printer models have been specifically designed for slightly
different media applications.
The MX81x printer models should not be used in the following customer applications:
•
Vinyl and Polyester labels
For applications where these labels are run, the MS71x printer models are recommended.
•
Narrow Media Batch Jobs
The MX810 printer model supports many standard and custom paper sizes. When printing on paper less than
210 mm (8.3 inches) wide, the printer speed may decrease. If you print large jobs on narrow paper regularly, then
consider the MS71x printer models, which are designed to print batches of 10 or more pages of narrow paper at a
faster speed.
Note: For the MX81x printer models, A5 default orientation is Landscape, which is also called as LEF, and thus
A5 is not considered as narrow media.
If vinyl labels are printed on the MX71x or MX81x printer models, this can lead to print quality problems and printer
damage. If narrow media batch jobs are printed, printer throughput could be substantially reduced. If either of these
applications are being considered for the MX71x or MX81x printer models, then contact your Lexmark sales
representative for more information about the MS71x printer models.
The following table lists the maximum weights supported by the trays and the multipurpose feeder.
Note: Scanning labels through the ADF is not recommended.
