Customizing the Settings for Your Paper
When you choose a media type in your Epson printer software, the driver
automatically determines the best settings for your paper. However, you may
want to fine-tune how the printer handles various media—especially if you
use non-Epson paper or a paper not supported by the driver. Use the paper
configuration settings described below.
You can create a group of settings for each paper type (up to ten types) and
select the settings whenever you print on a particular stock.
