Transparencies and labels
You may also print on labels and transparencies that are made for the printer. Panasonic has tested and found
that the following work satisfactorily.
Note:
³With any label, the labels must completely cover the backing material (see below).
³Re-using transparencies that have been fed through the printer once (for example, after jams or if the
transparency is ejected without being printed) can reduce the life of the consumables and paper path
components.
³Some types of paper, especially transparencies are made to print on a specific side. If the print quality is poor,
try printing on the other side.Transparencies 3M CG3300, 3M CG5000

Printer
Do not attempt to print on any of the following types of envelopes (these may cause damage to your
printer):
Always test a sample of the envelopes you are thinking of buying. Confirm that the envelope performs
acceptably.
For best printing results
³Avoid printing in high humidity i.e., above 70 %.
High humidity may cause the envelope to curl and pick up excess toner.
High humidity may also cause the envelope to seal.
³Avoid printing below 10 oC (50 oF) with less than 30 % relative humidity.
Low temperature with low humidity may cause light printing.
³Print only one envelope at a time.
Envelope storage is very important. Store them away from moisture and humidity, where they can lay flat and
their edges will not be bent or damaged. The humidity should not exceed 70 % RH.
Envelope specifications
We recommend that you purchase only high quality envelopes with diagonal seams, as shown in the diagram
below:
High quality envelopes have the following
characteristics:
³A thin, sharply creased leading edge
³Paper weight of 75 g/m
2(20 lb.)
³Flat, free of curls, wrinkles, nicks, etc.
³No cotton and/or fiber material included
Note:
³Wrinkles may occur in some cases, even if high quality envelopes are used.
We recommend that you do not use envelopes with any of the following characteristics (using these
may result in paper jams):
³Irregularly shaped envelopes
³Envelopes with curls, wrinkles, nicks, twists,
dog-ears or other damage
