Re: [Digital BW] Epson Ultra Smooth Paper on the R2400

2006-01-14 by Sam McCandless

Only because I unpacked a 2400 this morning, Steve, I know a little 
bit about Epson's 2400 and their Ultra Smooth paper.

On the Single Sheet Guide there's an illustration which lists three 
papers to use with the Guide. Ultra Smooth is at the top of the list. 
(The other two are Velvet Fine Art and Watercolor Paper - Radiant 
White.)

The 2400's Start Here folder doesn't deal with the Single Sheet 
Guide. But see "Loading Special Paper in the Single Sheet Guide" 
section on page 18 of the User's Guide. Ultra Smooth and the other 
two papers listed above are listed again. But this time so is 
PremierArt Matte Scrapbook Photo paper.

Finally, UltraSmooth is listed in the paper guide on the inside back 
cover of the User's Guide, in Super B (13 x 19 inches) size with its 
part number, SP91209. The other three papers mentioned above are 
listed along with Ultra Smooth.

But the only thing I've seen so far about how to print on Ultra 
Smooth is that it says on page 72 to use the Matte Black with it.
