EPSON AcuLaser C3800 User's Guide
EPSON Color Laser Coated Paper
Printing on EPSON Color Laser Coated Paper produces glossier and higher quality
printouts. When loading EPSON Color Laser Coated Paper, you should make paper
settings as shown below:
❏ Make settings on the Basic Settings in the printer driver.
Note:
Duplex printing is not available for EPSON Color Laser Coated Paper.
❏ You can also make these settings on the Tray Menu in the control panel. See "Tray
Menu" on page 172.
❏ EPSON Color Laser Coated Paper may not be fed properly, depending on the
temperature and humidity condition, because it is coated with the special materials. If
this happens, load it one sheet at a time from the MP tray.
Envelopes
The print quality of envelopes may be irregular because different parts of an envelope have
different thicknesses. Print one or two envelopes to check the print quality.
c
Caution:
Do not use window envelopes. The plastic on most window envelopes will melt when it comes
into contact with the fuser.
Note:
❏ Depending on the quality of envelopes, the printing environment, or the printing procedure,
envelopes might be wrinkled. Make a trial print run before you print on a lot of envelopes.
❏ Duplex printing is not available for envelopes.
❏ When printing on envelopes, you cannot set the printing resolution to 1200 dpi. If you set the
resolution to 1200 dpi and print from an application onto envelopes, they may not be printed
properly.
