Notes:
Since the quality of any particular brand or type of paper
may be changed by the manufacturer at any time,
EPSON cannot guarantee the use of any particular 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 and other problems. If you encounter
problems, switch to a higher grade of paper.
Do not load curled or folded paper, envelopes, or
transparencies.

conditions:
Temperature: 59 to 77 °F (15 to 25 °C)
Humidity: 40 to 60% RH
Store glossy media and self adhesive sheets under
these conditions:
Temperature: 59 to 86 °F (15 to 30 °C)
