Printing From Start to Finish

Before you start, make sure your printer software is installed as described on the Start
Here sheet or Installing Software for Windows 98, Windows Me, and Windows 2000
booklet.

I
Use the right paper.
For the best-looking photos, most vivid colors, and sharpest text, always use
EPSON ink jet papers.

Choose the right Paper Type setting (Media Type setting on the Macintosh).

setting is important. It tells your printer what kind of paper you're using. So
remember to check your Paper Type setting every time you print. If you're not
sure which setting to use with your paper, see page 22.
