Choosing Advanced Media Control Options
Follow these instructions if you are using non-Epson media and you need to
fine-tune its performance.
1. Select
Advanced Media Control from the drop-down menu. You see
this screen:
2. Select the correct settings to match your ICC profile. These settings
override any paper configuration settings you may have made using the
printer’s control panel.
• Color Density lets you control the ink saturation level.
• Drying Time per Print Head Pass lets you print with non-Epson
media and avoid smearing the ink. You can make the print head
wait up to 5 seconds after each pass to allow ink to dry on the page.
• Paper Feed Adjustment helps reduce banding. Choose a lower
value if you see white lines on your prints, or a higher value if you
see dark lines.
• Paper Thickness helps reduce vertical banding and creates a
sharper image when printing on unusually thick or thin paper.
Note: You may need to
change the Color Density
setting if your custom
color profile was created
to optimize D-max and
color gamut.
