Removing Continuous Paper With Labels - Epson FX-1180 User Manual

You load labels the same way you load ordinary continuous
paper, except you must set the paper thickness lever to 2 before
printing on labels. See "Loading paper with the pull tractor"
later in this chapter for more information.
Caution:
c
q
It is best to load continuous paper with labels on the pull
tractor. Loading labels on the rear or the front push tractor
is not recommended.
q
Never feed labels backward using the Load/Eject or
Tear Off/Bin button. When fed backward, labels can
easily peel off the backing sheet and cause a paper jam.
q
Because labels are sensitive to temperature and humidity,
use them only under normal operating conditions, as
follows:
Temperature
Humidity
q
Do not leave labels loaded in the printer between jobs; they
may curl around the platen and jam when you resume
printing.
q
Do not load continuous paper with labels from the rear
paper slot. Because the paper path from the rear slot is
curved, labels may come off their backing sheets inside the
printer and cause a paper jam.
q
Do not load paper that is curled or has been folded.
