20 Paper Handling
General paper
You can use the following paper in addition to EPSON special
media introduced in the previous section.
* Use recycled paper only under normal temperature and humidity
conditions. Poor quality paper may reduce print quality, cause paper jams
and other problems.
** Gaps between labels may cause the labels to peel off inside the printer and
damage the printer.
Note:
❏ Since the quality of any particular brand or type of media may be
changed by the manufacturer at any time, EPSON cannot
guarantee the quality of any type of media. Always test samples of
media stock before purchasing large quantities or printing large jobs.
❏ You may use paper with preprinted letterheads, provided that the
paper and ink are both compatible with laser printers.
