1Use the Flip Horizontal option to reverse your image before you print it—especially if it includes text—so the image will appear correctly when it’s transferred. See Chapter 2 for instructions.

2For better results, load EPSON Photo Quality Glossy Film one sheet at a time. This also allows you to use a smaller top margin.

The type of paper or other media you use is one of the most important factors in determining the quality of your printed output. The following tips will help you get the best results on any type of paper or other media.

Caution:

Don’t use the cleaning sheets that may be included with your special media; they may damage the printer.

Additional Media Loading Guidelines

If the corresponding Media Type option for your paper is not shown in the Media Type list, change the Print Quality setting in the More Settings dialog box, select Automatic as the Mode setting, or change the predefined setting in the Custom Settings list in the printer settings dialog box. Then select the correct media type. See Chapter 2 for more information.

In addition to the Media Type option, remember to select the correct Paper Size for your media on the Paper menu.

Some special media have a cut corner that you need to position correctly; follow any instructions in the package. Always handle sheets by the edges, and don’t touch the printable surface.
