Selecting The Correct Paper Type - Epson Stylus C42 Series Printer Basics Manual

Selecting the Correct Paper Type

Your printer automatically adjusts itself for the type
of paper you select in your print settings. That's why
the Paper Type setting (Media Type setting in
Macintosh) is so important. It tells your printer what
kind of paper you're using and adjusts the ink
coverage accordingly.
The table below lists the settings you should choose
for your paper:
