Loading Special Papers and Other Media

When using special coated paper, glossy paper, envelopes, and
transparencies, keep the following in mind:
Do not touch the printable surface of the paper; hold the
sheets by their edges. The moisture and oils on your hands
can reduce print quality.
Use special coated paper and glossy papers within one year
of purchase. Use transparencies within six months.
Before printing on EPSON high-quality glossy paper, or
special coated paper for 720 or 360 dpi, make sure the color
print head unit is installed and Color Head Unit is selected
in the driver's Document Type dialog box. If you are
loading glossy paper, make sure to set Super - 720 dpi as
the printing mode in the driver's Printing Mode/Options
dialog box. (See Chapter 2 for instructions on using the
driver.)
When printing on high-quality glossy paper or
transparencies, remove each sheet from the output tray
immediately after it is printed. Make sure each sheet is dry
before stacking.
You can print on sheets of labels in your printer; just follow
the instructions for loading plain paper on page 1-6.
Return unused sheets and envelopes to their original package
as soon as possible after you finish printing. Unfavorable
storage conditions—especially high temperature, humidity,
and direct sunlight—can damage the media.
