Loading Special Paper and Other Media
You can use most plain bond paper to achieve good results.
However, coated papers and glossy paper/film give you better
results because they reduce the amount of ink that is absorbed.
EPSON provides special media that are formulated for the ink
used in EPSON ink jet printers. EPSON recommends you to
use media distributed by EPSON to ensure high-quality results.
For a list of EPSON special media, see page 1-6, or “Printing
Supplies” in online help.
When loading special paper distributed by EPSON, read the
instruction sheet packed with your special media first and keep
the following in mind:
❑Make sure the printable surface of the paper is face up
when loading media into the sheet feeder. See the
instruction sheet packed with the media to determine
which side is the printable surface. Some media features cut
corners to help identify the correct loading direction, as
shown below.
❑Make sure the paper thickness lever setting an d the adjust
lever position are appropriate for the paper. See “Setting
the Paper Thickness and Adjust Levers,” on page 4-2.
