Loading Labels - Epson Stylus 1500 Reference Manual

Loading Labels

You can print on labels using single sheets or continuous
sheets. For loading instructions, follow the procedure under
"Loading Single Sheets Manually" on page 1-11 or "Loading
Continuous Paper" on page 1-22. When printing on labels, keep
the following in mind:
Do not use labels that are curled or folded. Also avoid
using labels that are peeling off the backing.
Use labels only under normal operating conditions:
Temperature
Humidity
If your labels don't feed properly or jam, see Chapter 4,
"Troubleshooting."
Make sure you load labels with the printable surface facing
up.
For single sheets of labels:
Load sheets of labels into the manual feed slot one at a
time. Otherwise, they may not feed properly. See "Loading
Single Sheets Manually" on page 1-11. Also, see
Appendix B for specifications.
Use labels that completely cover the backing sheet;
otherwise, they may peel off and become jammed in the
printer.
For continuous labels:
Choose labels mounted on a continuous backing sheet with
sprocket holes for use with the tractor feeder. Follow the
instructions on page 1-22 to load continuous labels like any
other type of continuous paper.
