Loading Paper5 Loading Paper You can print documents and photos on a variety of paper types and sizes. For details, see page 6. 1. Open the paper support and pull up the extensions. Then open the output tray, pull out the extension, and raise the paper stopper. 2. Pinch the edge guide and slide it to the left. 3. Insert paper, glossy or printable side up, against the right side and behind the tab. (Load letterhead or pre-printed paper top edge first.) Always load paper short edge first, even for landscape printing. 8½ × 11 4 × 6
6Loading Paper You can load up to 100 sheets of plain paper, or 20 sheets of photo paper. Load other special papers one sheet at a time. Note: The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks. If you are just making a copy or printing a rough draft, plain paper is fine. However, for the best results, you’ll want to use one of Epson’s special ink jet papers designed for your printer (see “Using Special Papers” for more information). 4. Slide the edge guide against the paper, but not too tightly. Note: For details on paper and instructions on loading envelopes, see your online User’s Guide. Using Special Papers Epson offers a wide array of high quality papers, making it easy to maximize the impact of your photos, presentations, and creative projects. You can purchase genuine Epson ink and paper at Epson Supplies CentralSM at www.epson.com/ink3 (U.S. sales) or www.epson.ca (Canadian sales). You can also purchase supplies from an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest one, call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766).
