Note: Do not remove or insert the paper cassette during printing.
Always follow these paper loading guidelines:
• Load only the recommended number of sheets.
• Load paper short edge first and printable side down.
• Load letterhead or pre-printed paper top edge first.
• Make sure the paper is under the tabs on the edge guides and not sticking out from the rear end of
the cassette.
• If the paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on
curled paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.
• Do not use papers that are wavy, torn or cut, folded, damp, have stickers, or are too thick or too
thin.
• Fan and align the edges of envelopes before loading.
• If you have trouble loading a stack of envelopes, press each envelope flat before loading it or load
one envelope at a time.
• Do not load envelopes that are curled, folded, or too thin, or that have plastic windows or exposed
adhesive flaps.
• Paper feed problems may occur frequently for manual 2-sided printing when printing on one side
of pre-printed paper. Reduce the number of sheets to half or less, or load one sheet of paper at a
time if paper jams continue.
• For pre-punched paper, load a single sheet of defined-size plain paper with holes at the left or
right. Adjust the print position of your file to avoid printing over the holes. Automatic 2-sided
printing is not available for pre-punched paper
• For paper longer than Legal size, make sure the end of the paper is cut perpendicularly. A
diagonal cut may cause paper feed problems. Long paper cannot be held in the output tray.
Prepare a box or tray to make sure that paper does not fall on the floor. Do not touch paper that is
being fed or ejected. It could injure your hand or cause print quality to decline.
• Check the paper package for any additional loading instructions.
• To achieve high-quality printouts with genuine Epson paper, use the paper in the environment
stated on the instructions supplied with the paper.
• If you use paper with binder holes, load only one sheet at a time in only these sizes: Letter
(8.5 × 11 inches [216 × 279 mm]), A4 (8.3 × 11.7 inches [210 × 297 mm]), A5 (5.8 × 8.2 inches
[148 × 210 mm]), A6 (4.1 × 5.8 inches [105 × 148 mm]), B5 (7.2 × 10.1 inches [182 × 257 mm]), or
Legal (8.5 × 14 inches [216 × 356 mm]).
