    DELL CONFIDENTIAL – PRELIMINARY 9/13/10 - FOR PROOF ONLY
     NOTICE: Before buying large quantities of any print media, it is recommended 
    that you try a sample first.
    When printing on labels:
    • Use labels that can withstand temperatures of 205 °C (401 °F) without 
    sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions.
    • Set the paper type to 
    Label from the printer driver. 
    • Use Standard Tray for label.
    • Do not print through Single Sheet Feeder for label.
    • Do not load labels together with paper in the same tray.
    • Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 inches) of the die-cut.
    • Do not print within 1 mm (0.04 inches) of the edge of the label, of the 
    perforations, or between die-cuts of the label.
    • Do not print a label through the printer more than once.
    • Portrait orientation is preferred, especially when printing bar codes. 
    • Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive.
    • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during 
    printing, resulting in a jam.
    • Do not use label sheets that have adhesive to the edge of the sheet. It is 
    recommended that zone coating of the adhesive is done at least 1 mm (0.04 
    inches) away from edges. Adhesive material contaminates your printer and 
    could void your warranty. 
     CAUTION: Otherwise the printer occur in a jam and contaminate your printer 
    and your cartridges with adhesive. As a result, could void your printer and cartridge 
    warranties.
    Storing Print Media
    For proper print media storage, the following guidelines will help to avoid 
    media feeding problems and uneven print quality.
    • Store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 
    21 °C (70 °F) and the relative humidity is 40 %.
    • Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the 
    floor.

    • If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, 
    ensure that they rest on a flat surface so that the edges do not buckle or curl. 
    • Do not place anything on top of the print media packages.

    and pre-punched paper enter the printer with the print side facing down as 
    shown below.
     NOTE: For Dell 2155cdn Multifunction Color Printer, set Letterhead 
    Duplex Mode to Enable and Paper Type to Letterhead, Preprinted, 
    or Prepunched from the operator panel or the printer driver even when you print 
    on a single side of letterhead, pre-printed, or pre-punched paper.
    When using the single sheet feeder, the pre-printed paper such as letterhead 
    enters the printer first with the print side facing down.

    feeders. For other pre-printed and pre-punched paper, load the paper by
