CD's unknown.
Though I haven't yet printed transparent paper, I'm confident it will work well. This is a great little printer!
A:AnswerIt should as long as the print area fits on the page, but then again I could not even get it to print horizontal even though that's the orientation I chose. Not much help I know, just offering an informed opinion...
A:AnswerBrother doesn't recommend using the Brother MFC-J497DW to print labels due to the likelihood of them becoming dislodged in the paper path causing damage. Brother's limited warranty doesn't apply to any issues caused by attempting to print labels with this machine.
