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.
Use papers under these conditions:
Temperature: 59 to 77 °F (15 to 25 °C)
Humidity:
40 to 60% RH
Store printouts on EPSON Photo Quality Glossy Film and Self- 
Adhesive Sheets under these conditions:
Temperature: 59 to 86 °F (15 to 30 °C)
Humidity:
20 to 60% RH
