Printing on Special Media
When you print on special media, you need to be careful
about choosing the correct Media Type and Paper Size
settings in your printer software. The following table lists the
available EPSON media and the corresponding Media Type
setting to select in your printer software.
1
Use the Flip
Horizontal option to reverse your image before you
print it—especially if it includes text—so the image will appear
correctly when it’s transferred.
2
For better results, load EPSON Photo Quality Glossy Film one
sheet at a time. This also allows you to use a smaller top margin.
Additional Media Loading Guidelines
Caution:
Don’t use the cleaning sheets that may be included with
your special media; they may damage the printer.
❏ If the corresponding Media Type option for your paper is
not shown in the Media Type list, change the
Print Quality
setting in the More Settings dialog box, select
Automatic as
the Mode setting, or change the predefined setting in the
Custom Settings list in the printer settings dialog box. Then
select the correct media type.
❏ Some special media have a cut corner that you need to
position correctly; follow any instructions in the package.
Always handle sheets by the edges, and don’t touch the
printable surface.
❏ If the special media has protective sheets between each sheet
of media, be sure to remove the protective sheets before
printing.
Load the printable side of the media face up in the sheet
feeder.
