Handling Paper
Epson offers an extensive line of special papers that provide outstanding results when used with Epson printers and ink. The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks, so be sure to select the correct paper for your job.
Selecting Paper
If you are just making a copy or printing a rough draft of an image, plain paper is fine. However, for the best results, you will want to use one of Epson’s special ink jet papers designed for the product.
Before printing, you need to select the correct Paper Type setting on the control panel. This important setting determines how the ink is applied to the paper.
