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 or other 
problems. If you encounter problems, switch to a higher grade of paper. Do 
not use curled, folded, or deckle-edge paper....
