2-2 | Using Paper and Other Media

Selecting Paper for Your Printer

You can print on most types of coated, glossy, plain paper, and other media.

The following table lists general paper requirements for your printer:

It’s a good idea to test samples of paper in the printer before purchasing large

quantities or printing large jobs. When you use non-EPSON papers or other

media, you may need to “profile” their thickness and ink drying time. See

page 2-29 for instructions.

Paper Handling Guidelines

Always follow these guidelines, as well as those included in your paper

package, when printing on EPSON paper and other media:

•

Avoid touching the printable surface of the paper or other media with

bare hands. Fingerprints may affect print quality. Handle media by the

edges or use cotton gloves.

•

Choose an appropriate Media Type setting in your printer software

before sending your job. See page 2-7 for instructions. You may have to

experiment to find out which setting works best.

•

Select the correct paper source (roll or sheet) in both the printer software

and on the printer’s control panel. See page 3-2 (Macintosh) or page 4-5

(Windows) to select the paper source in your printer software.

•

Keep unused media in its original packaging and store it in a cool, dry

place to avoid a loss of quality. Avoid storing media or printouts where

they will be exposed to high temperature, humidity, or direct sunlight.
