4. Operating Instructions
Once your design is ready, follow these steps to print and apply your labels:
- Load Labels: Load the Avery label sheets into your laser printer's paper tray according to your printer's instructions, ensuring the correct orientation for printing on the label side.
- Print: Initiate the printing process from the Avery online tool or your design software. Print a test sheet on plain paper first to verify alignment if unsure.
- Peel Labels: Once printed, gently bend the label sheet along the perforations or edges to activate the Easy Peel Pop-up Edge feature. This will slightly lift the edges of the labels, making them easier to grasp.
- Apply Labels: Carefully peel each label from the sheet and apply it to your desired surface, such as an envelope, package, or folder. Press firmly to ensure proper adhesion.

5. Maintenance and Storage
To maintain the quality and usability of your Avery labels:
- Storage: Store unused label sheets in their original packaging or a flat, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This helps prevent curling, yellowing, or adhesive degradation.
- Handling: Handle label sheets by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin to the printable surface, which can affect print quality.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues while using your Avery labels, consider the following:
- Misalignment or Jamming: Ensure label sheets are loaded correctly into your printer's paper tray. Verify that your printer settings match the label type and size. Avery's Sure Feed Technology is designed to minimize these issues, but proper loading is crucial.
- Poor Print Quality: Check your printer's toner levels. Ensure you are using the correct template from avery.com/templates for Model 5662. Clean your printer's print heads if necessary.
- Labels Not Sticking: Ensure the surface you are applying the label to is clean, dry, and smooth. Avoid applying labels to heavily textured or oily surfaces.
- Labels Curling: Store labels flat in a cool, dry place. Humidity or improper storage can cause curling.
