Using Labels - Epson DFX-9000 Reference Manual

When you print on these forms, make sure that the printing fits
within the printable area and that the top-of-form position is set
properly. See "Paper" on page 174 for more information about the
printable area.

Using labels

When selecting labels for printing, always choose the type
mounted on continuous paper with sprocket holes for use with a
tractor. See "Loading Paper onto the Front Tractor" on page 15
for instructions for loading continuous paper.
Caution:
c
Never use the Tear Off, Front/Rear, or Micro Feedd button
when labels are loaded in the printer. Never feed labels backward
through the printer because they can easily come off the backing
and jam the printer.
Although you must never feed labels backward, you can still use
the automatic paper handling features if you follow these
precautions:
❏ Instead of using the Tear Off button to remove printed labels,
press the LF/FF Load button until the last printed label is at
the point where you can tear it off easily.
❏ Before using the Front/Rear button to switch tractors or
change paper, remove the entire supply of labels. Remove
labels by tearing off the fresh supply at a perforation below
the tractor. Then press the LF/FF Load button to eject the
remaining labels.
❏ When adjusting the top-of-form or printing position, use only
the Micro Feedu button.
Caution:
c
Because labels are especially sensitive to extreme temperatures
and humidity, use them only under normal operating conditions.
