Selecting Media For Your Printer
You can print on most types of coated, glossy, plain paper, and other media.
A high-tension spindle is also available for printing on certain media such as
EPSON Synthetic Paper, Smooth Fine Art Paper, and Textured Fine Art
Paper; this keeps the correct amount of tension on the paper and prevents
horizontal banding in your printouts.
