Paper and Media Handling
Introduction to Using, Loading, and Storing Media
You can achieve good results with most types of plain paper. However, coated papers provide superior prints because
they absorb less ink.
Epson provides special papers that are formulated for the ink used in Epson ink jet products, and recommends these
papers to ensure high-quality results.
When loading special paper distributed by Epson, read the instruction sheets packed with the paper first and keep the
following points in mind.
Note:
❏
Load the paper into the paper cassette printable side down. The printable side is usually whiter or glossier. See the
instruction sheets packed with the paper for more information. Some types of paper have cut corners to help identify the
correct loading direction.
❏
If the paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled paper may
cause ink to smear on your prints.
Storing paper
Return unused paper to the original package as soon as you finish printing. When handling special media, Epson
recommends storing your prints in a resealable plastic bag. Keep unused paper and prints away from high
temperature, humidity, and direct sunlight.
Selecting Paper
The following table shows supported paper types. The loading capacity and paper source vary by paper as shown
below.

Prioritizing urgent faxes (Priority Send)
When you want to send an urgent fax, and there are already multiple faxes waiting to be sent, you can send the
urgent fax as soon as an ongoing fax job is finished. To do this, enable Priority Send in the Fax Send Settings menu
before you press x (Color) or x (B&W).
Note that a fax job sent from a computer is given priority over Priority Send fax jobs.
❏
Saving on connection times and fees by using batch operations (Batch Send)

in its memory, and then groups faxes for the same recipient together to send them as a batch. Up to 5 files and/or
up to 100 pages in total can be sent using the batch operation. Access the menu as shown below.
& Setup > System Administration > Fax Settings > Send Settings > Batch Send
Note:
❏
This function only works when the recipient information is identical. If the same recipient is found in two fax
jobs, but one of the jobs contains another recipient, the product does not group them together.
❏
Even if the recipient information matches, scheduled faxes are not grouped together unless the time to send the
fax matches.
❏
This function is not applied to faxes sent from a computer, or faxes sent with the Priority Send or Direct Send
option enabled.
❏
Sending different-sized documents using the ADF (Continuous Scan from ADF)
If you place different-sized documents in the ADF at the same time, they may not be sent at their original sizes. To
send different-sized documents using the ADF, first enable Continuous Scan from ADF option from the Fax Send
Settings menu. The product will then ask you if you want to scan another page each time you finish scanning
documents in the ADF before starting transmission. Using this feature, you can sort and scan documents by size.
This is also useful when faxing a large volume of documents, which cannot be loaded in the ADF at the same
time.
