Selecting The Correct Media Type - Epson 1160 Printer Basics Manual

Selecting the Correct Media Type

Your printer automatically adjusts itself for the type of
paper you select in your printer software. That's why
the Media Type setting is so important. It tells your
printer what kind of paper you're using and adjusts the
ink coverage accordingly.
Before you print, always check your Media Type
setting. Here are the settings you should choose for
your paper:

printer.
