Paper
Note:
Always load paper into the sheet feeder short edge first, except for
envelopes. Load envelopes flap edge first with the flap side down.
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.
Do not load curled or folded paper.
