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 and other problems. If you encounter problems,
switch to a higher grade of paper.
Do not load curled or folded paper.
