Appendix
Label
Be sure to feed labels from the multi purpose tray.
For selecting labels, use extreme care so that the adhesive may not come in direct contact with any
part of the machine and that the labels are not easily peeled from the carrier sheet. Adhesives that
stick to the drum or rollers and peeled labels remaining in the machine may cause a failure.
When printing onto labels, you must be liable for the print quality and possible trouble.
Labels consist of three layers as shown in the
illustration. The adhesive layer contains materials that
are easily affected by the force applied in the machine.
The carrier sheet bears the top sheet until the label is
used. This composition of labels may cause more
problems.
The label surface must be covered completely with the
top sheet. Gaps between labels may cause peeling of
labels, resulting in a serious failure.
Some label paper has large margins on the top sheet. When using such paper, do not peel these
margins from the carrier sheet before completing output.
Use label paper that conforms to the following specifications.

Postcard
Fan the stack of postcards and align the edges before
loading them in the multi purpose tray. Set the
postcards after straightening them if they are curled.
Feeding curled postcards may cause paper jams.
For printing onto return postcards, use a type that does
not contain a fold.
Some postcards have rough edges on the back (those
are created when the paper is cut). In this case, put the
postcards on a flat place and rub the edges with, for
example, a ruler lightly once or twice to smooth them.
