Operation Manual

Notes on Handling
❏ Use Epson special media under normal room
conditions (temperature: 15 to 25˚C, humidity: 40
to 60%).
❏ Do not fold the paper or scratch the surface of the
paper.
❏ Avoid touching the printable surface of the paper
with your bare hands. Moisture and oils from your
hands can affect print quality.
❏ Handle paper by the edges. We recommend
wearing cotton gloves.
❏ Changes in temperature and humidity may cause
paper to become wavy or curled. Be careful not to
scratch or soil the paper, and flatten it before
loading it in the printer.
❏ Do not wet the paper.
❏ Do not throw away the paper packaging as you can
use it for storing the paper.
❏ Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight,
excessive heat, or humidity.
❏ Keep cut sheets in their original package after
opening, and keep them in a flat place.
❏ Remove roll paper that is not in use from the
printer. Rewind it correctly and then store it in the
original packaging that came with the roll paper. If
you leave the roll paper in the printer for a long
time, its quality may decline.
Notes on handling printed paper
To maintain long lasting, high quality print results, note
the following points.
❏ Do not rub or scratch the printed surface. If they are
rubbed or scratched, the ink may peel off.
❏ Do not touch the printed surface; Failure to observe
this precaution may cause ink to rub off.
❏ Make sure the print outs are completely dry before
folding of stacking; otherwise, the color may change
where they touch (leaves a mark). These marks will
disappear if they are separated immediately and
dried; however, they will remain if not separated.
❏ If you put the print outs in an album before they are
completely dry, they may be blurred.
❏ Do not use a dryer to dry the print outs.
❏ Avoid direct sunlight.
❏ Prevent color distortion while displaying or storing
the print outs by following the instructions in the
paper's documentation.
Note:
Typically, print outs and photos fade over time (color
distortion) due to the effects of light and various
constituents in the air. This also applies to Epson special
media. However, with the correct storage method, the
degree of color distortion can be minimized.
❏ See the documentation supplied with Epson special
media for detailed information on handling the
paper after printing.
❏ The colors of photos, posters, and other printed
materials appear different under different lighting
conditions (light sources
*
). The colors of print outs
from this printer may also appear different under
different light sources.
* Light sources include sunlight, fluorescent light,
incandescent light, and other types.
