Place paper beneath the tabs.
The paper's printable side is often whiter or brighter than
the other side.
You can load up to 100 sheets of plain paper and up to 20
sheets of photo paper. (See the User's Guide for capacity
guidelines on other paper types.)
Note:
The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout
looks, so be sure to select the correct paper for your job. If you
are just making a copy or printing a rough draft of an image, plain
paper is fine. However, for the best results, you'll want to use
one of Epson's special ink jet papers designed for your printer.
For example, your photos will look great printed on Epson
Premium Glossy Photo Paper.
