Tips on using labels
•
From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the
labels loaded in the tray.
•
Print samples on labels being considered for use before buying large quantities.
•
For more information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide on
the Lexmark Web site at http://support.lexmark.com.
•
Use labels designed specifically for laser printers.
•
Do not use labels with slick backing material.
•
Do not use labels with exposed adhesive.
•
Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial
sheets also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and toner
cartridge warranties.
•
Before loading labels on the tray, flex and fan labels to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a level surface.
Tips on using card stock
Card stock is heavy, single‑ply specialty media. Many of its variable characteristics, such as moisture content,
thickness, and texture, can significantly affect print quality.
•
From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the
card stock loaded in the tray.
•
Print samples on the card stock being considered for use before buying large quantities.
•
Specify the paper texture and weight from the tray settings to match the paper loaded in the tray.
•
Preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or other paper
feed problems.
