Selecting Paper
With the EPL-6000, you can print on many sizes and types of paper.
You can also use other media, such as envelopes, labels, and
overhead projector transparencies. The printer feeds most types of
paper automatically from the paper cassette, while special print
media and special paper require manual feeding for greater control.
The type of paper you use in the printer directly affects the quality
of the material you print.
A printed image is made up of many tiny dots of toner. If
the
paper
is rough,
the
edges of the letters become ragged because some of the
dots fall into indentations
on the
paper. The smoother the paper
used, the better your printing will look
You should use especially smooth paper for printing originals that
will be used to make reproductions. Because reproduction
introduces its own raggedness to
the
edges of the letters, you
want
to start with the best originals possible.
Below are some recommendations for selecting paper and other
print media for your printer.
Note: Since the quality of a particular paper may be changed by
the manufacturer at any time, Epson cannot guarantee any
particular brand or type of paper. Be sure to test samples of paper
stock before purchasing large quantities or printing large jobs.
