Choosing Paper or Other Media

You can print on many different kinds of paper or other media with your EPL-N1200:

❑Plain bond paper (16 to 24 lb weight)

❑Card stock (24 to 42 lb weight)

❑Envelopes

❑Labels

❑Transparency film.

You can print on many sizes of paper too. Just be sure the size is within this range:

Width: Between 3.6 and 8.5 inches (92 to 216 mm)

Height: Between 5.8 and 14 inches (148.5 to 356 mm)

For the best quality printing, you must select smooth, high-quality paper. Also be sure to protect your media from moisture by storing it in its original packaging and avoiding a humid environment.

Keep the following in mind to select, load, and print on these media:

❑Envelopes. Load envelopes face up in the built-in paper tray. If the printing is irregular due to the varying thickness of the envelope paper, adjust the print density setting in the printer driver (see Chapter 2).

❑Labels. Select labels designed specifically for laser printers or plain paper copiers. Make sure all the labels adhere to and completely cover the backing sheet so they don’t peel off. To test your labels, press a sheet of plain paper on top of the label sheet and see if any part sticks.
