      About print speed
      • The print speed may drop depending on the paper settings for the size, type, orientation, and number of copies.
      • When continuously printing paper whose width is less than 190 mm, the print speed may drop gradually.
      Precautions for paper
      • See "e-Manual" (HTML manual) in the CD-ROM supplied with the printer.
      When using labels or envelopes
      • Using the following types of paper may result in paper jams that are difficult to clear or may result in damage to the printer.
      - Peeled labels or partly used labels
      - Coated labels that are easily peeled off from the backing sheet
      - Labels with uneven adhesive
      - Envelopes with fasteners or snaps
      - Envelopes with address windows
      - Envelopes with adhesive on the surface
      - Wrinkled or creased envelopes
