Special Media

Your EPSON Stylus COLOR 800 lets you print on just about any kind of paper you want to use. You can get great results printing on various sizes of plain paper, letterhead, and envelopes. You’ll get even better results with specially coated ink jet paper. For the best output, use EPSON’s photo-quality media: paper, glossy paper, and glossy film.

For special projects, you can use a variety of EPSON media designed for ink jet printers, ranging from transparencies to iron-on transfer paper. You can even set up your printer to use custom paper sizes to print large posters and banners. This chapter covers the following:
