Follow these guidelines as you load media in your product and remove printed media: • Maintain a constant room temperature when using Epson special media; optimal conditions are between 59 °F (15 °C) and 77 °F (25 °C), with 40 to 60% humidity. Changes in temperature and humidity may cause paper to become wavy or curled.
Page 61
• Do not place unwrapped media directly on the floor or press it against your clothing to avoid damaging the media surface. Make sure media is clean from debris and dust before loading. • Load media just before printing on it to avoid creases from the pressure rollers; creases may cause jams or cause the media to rub against the print head.
• Typically, prints and photos can fade over time due to the effects of light and various environmental factors. This also applies to Epson special media, however, the degree of color distortion can be minimized by following proper storage procedures. See the documentation supplied with Epson special media for detailed information on handling the paper after printing.
