Loading and Printing on Thick Paper
You can load thick paper, such as EPSON Velvet Fine Art Paper, in the manual feed
slot. Make sure your paper is white, up to 0.05-inch (1.3 mm) thick, and is flat and
smooth, with no folded edges.
Note: You can’t print on thick paper in the manual feed slot when you’re printing
with Macintosh OS X applications.
1. Turn off the printer and remove the roll
paper holder and automatic roll paper cutter,
if they’re installed (see page 40).
Note: You must remove the automatic roll
paper cutter or manual feed slot printing won’t
work.
2. Remove any paper loaded in the sheet
feeder.
3. Turn on the printer. (The printer must be
on to load thick paper correctly.)
4. Set the adjust lever to the ! position.
The m paper light begins flashing
rapidly.
5. Place one sheet of thick paper—printable
side up—in the manual feed slot. Slowly
insert it into the slot against the far left side.
6. Open the printer cover and look down into
the printer as you slide the paper into the
manual feed slot.
Position the leading edge so it’s just past the
small gray rollers, about 0.4-inch (1 cm).
Make sure the paper is feeding straight; if
not, tilt the paper slightly to the left or right
to straighten it.
