Problem

Solutions: Laser labels differ from copier labels in the following ways for the following reasons: Difference Reason More flexible Material So they can go through the paper path of a laser printer. Half a Label at the Top Most laser printers cannot print with the and Bottom of the Sheet first 3/8" or the last 1/4" of the page. Without these edges, labels would be wasted. This is where the unprintable zone comes into play. Vertical Perforations Makes the labels easier to work with, and the sheet more flexible. WHAT MAKES A LASER LABEL SO SPECIAL? Most labels cannot be picked up by the automatic paper feeder because they are the wrong weight, wrong thickness, or not flat enough. Some fold at the corners or jam up and look like an accordion. Desktop printers have a tight paper path which can cause inferior labels to peel off onto the feeding bar, drum or fuser roller. Avery's flexible, light weight, construction prevents such problems. Poorly formulated adhesives melt under heat, and ooze out from under the label leaving sticky "goop" in the printer. Avery's adhesive is designed to not ooze even under the heat and pressure of the laser printer toner fusing process. A toner image can literally flake off if the proper label face material isn't used. Avery's face material allows solid toner anchorage. Expect the label to dispense easily and stick where it's stuck. Adhesives can be altered by the heat of the laser printer. The adhesive Avery uses maintains its sticky properties and adheres to a variety of surfaces. Avery guarantees their laser labels to feed from the bottom paper tray and to not jam, peel or predispense inside the printer. Please explain to all customers the risks that could occur if not using a laser label when on a laser printer.
