4. Insert a sheet of paper with the printable side down between the edge guides until it meets
resistance. The printer feeds the paper automatically and is ready to print.
Note:
For your safety, Epson recommends operating the printer with the printer cover closed. The printer
will function with the printer cover opened or removed, but maximum safety and print speed are
achieved when the cover is closed.
If the first printed line on your page appears too high or low, you can use the Micro Adjust function
to adjust the top-of-form position. See “Adjusting the top-of-form position” on page 56 for more
information.

Multipart forms
Your printer can print on both single-sheet and continuous multipart forms. It can use multipart
forms with up to six parts including the original.
!
Caution:
❏ Use only carbonless multipart forms.
❏ When using multipart forms with a line of glue at the top of the form, load the forms with the
glued side first.
Before printing, set the paper-thickness lever to the appropriate position for your multipart forms
referring to the table in “Adjusting the Paper Thickness Lever” on page 19.
