Since the quality of any particular brand or type of paper may be
changed by the manufacturer at any time, EPSON cannot attest to
the quality of any non-EPSON brand or type of paper. Always test
samples of paper stock before purchasing large quantities or
printing large jobs. Poor quality paper may reduce print quality and
cause paper jams and other problems. If you encounter problems,
switch to a higher grade of paper.
