NTR = Non Tearable Media, which is likely Polyester based.
I Googled the melting point of Polyester and got this:
Melting point approximately 482°F (295°C).
I can't give you an exact numbers for your Printer, but I did find the maximum numbers, any media used in the printer needs to be able to take the max heat for one tenth of a second.
The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with the printer temperature. The printer's maximum temperature is 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second. Do not use letterhead that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types of thermography. Do not use raised letterhead. Do not use transparencies designed for Inkjet printers or other low-temperature printers. Use only transparencies that are specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.
Any media you use in a Laser Printer should specify that on the label, in some cases the media might be labeled for use in a Copier, (copiers fuse toner at a temperature similar to Laser Printers).
Never use media rated for use only in InkJet printers.
