Lexmark Dot Matrix Compatibility Guide

When feeding labels, the number of labels per sheet can affect registration more than basis weight. Typically, the more
labels per sheet, the better the registration.
When printing on card stock:
• From the printer control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the card
stock loaded in the tray.
• Do not use card stock that is creased. It may cause paper jams.
