temperature for 0.1 second about 170 °C (338 °F). The extra flaps and strips
might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser.
•For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from the
edges of the envelope.
•Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
-Condition: should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor damaged.
-Temperature: should resist the heat and pressure of the machine
during operation.
•Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well-creased folds.
•Do not use stamped envelopes.
•Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, selfadhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.

Transparency
•Prints made on transparency film with this printer are not compatible
with overhead projectors and may appear as a black and white image if
projected.
•Prints made on transparency film with this machine are not compatible
with overhead projectors and may appear as a black and white image if
projected.
To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in
laser printers.
•To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.
•To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged
sunlight.
•Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges.
•Do not use transparencies that separate from the backing sheet.
•To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the printed
sheets stack up as they are being printed out.
•Recommended media: Transparency for a color laser printer by Xerox, such
as 3R 91331(A4), 3R 2780 (Letter).
•Must withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.
•Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.
•Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long. Dust and dirt
may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.

Labels
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser
printers.
•When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
-Adhesives: Should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature
about 170 °C (338 °F).
•Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.
Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause
paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine
components.
•Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The
adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine.
•Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled,
bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
10
Card stock/ Custom-sized paper
-Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them.
Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing
serious jams.
-Curl: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of curl in any direction.
-Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
•In the software application, set the margins to at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)
away from the edges of the material.

Preprinted paper
When loading preprinted paper, the printed side should be facing up with an
uncurled edge at the front. If you experience problems with paper feeding, turn
the paper around. Note that print quality is not guaranteed.
•Must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or
release hazardous emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing
temperature for 0.1 second (about 170 °C (338 °F)).
12
Glossy Photo
Recommended media: Glossy paper (A4/Letter) for this machine by HP
Professional Laser Paper 150.
•Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely
affect machine rollers.
•Before you load preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry.
During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing
print quality.

What is an overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored on the computer hard drive (HDD) as a
special file format that can be printed on any document. Overlays are often used
to take the place of letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead,
you can create an overlay containing exactly the same information that is
currently on your letterhead. To print a letter with your company’s letterhead,
you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the machine just print
the letterhead overlay on your document.
