Using Cut Roll Paper - Epson STYLUS PHOTO 2000P Instruction Manual

Note:
If you do not plan to use the roll paper for a while, return the unused
roll to its original packaging. Unfavorable storage conditions such
as high temperatures, direct sunlight, or humidity can cause the
paper to deteriorate.

Using cut roll paper

You do not need to use the Roll Paper Holder to feed roll paper.
However, if you are not using the holder, you must cut the paper
into sheets of the correct size before loading it into the sheet
feeder.
Preparing the roll paper sheets
Cut the roll paper into sheets as described below.
1. Cut the paper at least 34 mm longer than the anticipated
length of the print data (we recommend that you add 50 mm
or more to the length of the print data).
Note:
If the paper length is less than the length of the paper plus 34 mm,
nothing will be printed on the last 14 mm of the paper.
For A4 and 329-mm width roll paper, lines are printed on the
back at 5-cm intervals, with bold lines printed at 50-cm
intervals. Always cut perpendicular to the edges, using these
lines as reference. Cut 89- and 100-mm width paper using a
triangle.
