Loading capacities for EPSON special media
You can achieve good results with most types of plain paper. However, coated paper results in higher quality printouts because these media absorb smaller amounts of ink.
EPSON provides special media that are formulated for the ink used in EPSON ink jet printers. EPSON recommends using media distributed by EPSON to ensure high-quality results. See Media types for a complete list of these products.
When loading special media distributed by EPSON, read the instruction sheets packed with the media first and keep the following points in mind.
Caution: |
Cleaning sheets packaged with EPSON special media should not be used with this printer. The cleaning function performed by these sheets is not necessary with this type of printer, and the sheets could jam in the printer. |
Note: |
If you extend the printable area by selecting Maximum as the Printable Area setting in the printer software, the cut corner on special paper may mar your printout. |
Note: |
To avoid gaps, always return the adjust lever to the position before printing on media of standard thickness. |
