Handling Paper

Epson offers an extensive line of special papers that
provide outstanding results when used with Epson
printers and ink. The type of paper you choose
affects the way your printout looks, so be sure to
select the correct paper for your job.

Selecting Paper

If you are just making a copy or printing a rough
draft of an image, plain paper is fine. However, for
the best results, you will want to use one of Epson's
special ink jet papers designed for the product.
Before printing, you need to select the correct Paper
Type setting on the control panel. This important
setting determines how the ink is applied to the
paper.
