Tips on loading label sheets
Make sure the top of the label sheet feeds into the printer first.
Make sure the adhesive on the labels does not extend to within 1 mm of the edge of the label sheet.
Make sure the paper guide or paper guides rest against the edges of the label sheet.
Use full label sheets. Partial sheets (with areas exposed by missing labels) may cause labels to peel off during
printing, resulting in a paper jam.
Note: Labels require more drying time. Remove each label sheet as it exits, and then allow it to dry to avoid ink
smudging.
