Adjusting the Platen Gap for Thick or Thin Paper
When you print on unusually thick or thin paper, you may need to adjust
the platen gap setting. Normally, the
STANDARD setting allows the printer
to adjust automatically. However, if print quality is not satisfactory when
using very thin or very thick stock, you may need to change this setting
.
Follow these steps:
1. Press the
SelecType button until PRINTER SETUP appears on the
display.
2. Press the
r button twice. The display shows the current setting for the
platen gap.
3. Use the
u and d buttons to change the setting. (STANDARD is the
default setting; you can also choose
NARROW, WIDE, or WIDER.)
4. Press the
Enter button to save the new setting.
5. Press the
Pause button to exit the menu.
If you’ve selected a non-standard platen gap, the letter
N or W appears in the
corner of the display to remind you of the narrow or wide setting. When you
switch media, don’t forget to change the setting back to
STANDARD.
If you’re printing on non-EPSON media, you may also need to create a
paper profile to optimize your results. See page 85.
Caution
To avoid damaging the
printer, never move the
paper lever while the
Operate or Pause light
is flashing.
