Roll Paper Guidelines

When printing on roll paper, be sure to follow the media handling guidelines on page 48, as well as these special guidelines for roll paper:

•When storing roll paper, keep it in its original packaging—including the bag, end caps, and box.

•To avoid feeding excess paper, make sure the Sheet icon does not appear on the LCD display. Press the l Paper Source button until the or roll icon appears.

•Choose if you want the paper to be cut automatically after each page is printed.

•Do not leave roll paper loaded in the printer when it is not in use.

•Choose if you want to print a series of pages and use the auto take-up reel.

•Choose if you’re printing on canvas or other heavy media. Media that is too thick may damage the cutter. Use a matte knife or cutter instead.

The following media (and other similar materials) may not work with the built-in cutter:

•Fine art paper (including Epson Textured and UltraSmooth® Fine Art Paper)

•Canvas

•Vinyl

•Matte board

•Heavyweight polyester banner media

•If you’re loading heavy paper, you may need to increase the paper suction by pressing the u Paper Feed button.
