■
Transparency Film
A4-size transparency film can be used with this printer. Transparency film should be
loaded into the paper tray.
•
Be sure to load the stack of transparencies after thoroughly fanning them. If they are not
fanned, they may overlap when fed and this may cause paper jams.
•
When transparencies are output with the printed side face up, remove the transparencies
from the tray one at a time as they come out. If you leave them on the tray, they may be
wrinkled, or paper jams may occur.
■
Label sheets
A4-size label sheets can be used with this printer. Check which side of the label sheets is
the face-up side before you load them into the paper tray.
•
Do not use the following types of label sheets. If a sheet type that does not conform to
specifications is used, this may cause hard to clear paper jams or a printer malfunction.
- Sheets with labels that are likely to peel off, or sheets on which some of the labels have
been used.
- Coated sheets that can easily peel off from the backing sheet.
- Label sheets with some adhesive surfaces exposed.
■
Postcards/Stamped, self-addressed postcards
Postcards should be loaded into the paper tray with the print side face down.
•
Do not use postcards other than official postcards. If other types of postcards are used,
this may cause a deterioration in the print quality as well as paper jams.
•
You can use only stamped, self-addressed postcards without creases.
•
When the edges of postcards are curled, bend them back in the opposite direction to
straighten them before loading them into the paper tray.
•
Do not use postcards designed for ink jet printers.
■

Loading Paper in the Paper Cassette
Follow the same procedure to load paper into paper cassette 1, which is supplied
with the printer, and paper cassette 2 in the optional paper feeder. You can load
different sizes of paper into cassettes 1 and 2, and you can also switch between
paper cassettes automatically.
Follow the procedure below to load paper into the paper cassettes properly.
•
To avoid paper jams, note the following precautions.
•
Do not use non-standard-size paper, such as transparencies, label sheets or envelopes.
