Paper Handling Precautions
Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.
To achieve high-quality printouts with genuine Epson paper, use the paper in the environment stated on the
sheets supplied with the paper.
Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading. Do not fan or curl photo paper. Doing so may damage the
printable side.
If the paper is curled, atten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled
paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.
Do not use paper that is wavy, torn, cut, folded, damp, too thick, too thin, or paper that has stickers stuck to it.
Using these types of paper causes paper jams and smears on the printout.
Make sure you are using long-grain paper. If you are not sure what type of paper you are using, check the paper
packaging or contact the manufacturer to conrm the paper specications.

You may need to connect the phone cable to an adapter provided for your country or region.
Note:
Remove the cap from the EXT. port of the printer only when connecting your telephone to the printer. Do not remove the cap if you are not connecting your telephone.
In areas where lightning strikes occur frequently, we recommend that you use a surge protector.
Connecting to a Standard Phone Line (PSTN) or PBX
Connect a phone cable from the telephone wall jack or PBX port to the LINE port on the back of the printer.
Connecting to DSL or ISDN
Connect a phone cable from the DSL modem or the ISDN terminal adapter to the LINE port on the back of the printer. See the documentation provided with the modem or the adapter for more details.
Note:
If your DSL modem is not equipped with a built-in DSL lter, connect a separate DSL lter.
