Setting Paper Configurations; Registering Paper Thickness, Drying Time, And Suction - Epson Stylus Pro 7000 Printer Manual

Note
It's a good idea to keep
a list of your registered
paper types and
numbers.

Setting Paper Configurations

When you use non-EPSON paper or other media, you may need to register
the paper's thickness, drying time, and suction setting. The only way to tell
if you need to do this is by experimentation. When you're using a paper
stock or other printing material for the first time, always test it on a small
print job. If the ink smears or printing is blurred, you need to register the
paper's drying time, thickness, and suction setting. On EPSON media, ink
dries immediately.
You can register up to four types of paper or other media. Then you can
select the registered values whenever you print on that particular stock.
Drying time determines how long the printer will pause between pages or
before cutting.
