Application Software
Most application programs let you specify the type of printer you
use so that the program can take full advantage of the printer’s
features. Many programs provide an installation or setup m&u that
presents a list of printers.
To take full 
advantage at your printer’s features, including ESC/P2,
choose one of the first three printers on the list below. If none of
these is listed, contact your software manufacturer for an update
that includes one of the three. Until you receive an update, choose
another printer as close to the top of the list as possible.

If none of these printers is listed among your program’s options,
select the first available of the following: EX, FX, LX, RX, MX, Epson
printer, Standard printer, Draft printer. Because these are 9-pin
printers, however, your graphics printing may not be correct.
Paper Handling
Printing on Single Sheets
You can load standard-sized single sheets with the paper cassette
and you can load single sheets of paper from 
148 mm (5.8 inches) to
257 mm (10.1 inches) wide with the manual insertion slot.
Tips for using the paper cassette
The tips below help you get the best performance when printing with
the cassette.
.
Load paper in the paper cassette before you turn on the printer
and send data. When the printer receives data from the
computer, it loads a single sheet automatically and begins to
print.
l
If the printer runs out of paper during a print job, reload the
paper cassette and press the FORM FEED button to load the
paper.
l
Press the FORM FEED button to eject a sheet of loaded paper.
You 
can adjust the top-of-form position with the gear under
the 
printer cover. It is marked by + and -signs. Open the
printer cover and turn the gear to adjust the position. The
notches on the ribbon mask indicate the base line of printed
characters. The gear adjustment affects 
only 
the 
loaded page. If
you want to change the top-of-form position permanently, you
can adjust it in the default-setting mode. However, most
application software programs take care of the top and bottom
margins. You usually don’t need to set 
the 
top-of-form position
on the printer.
