Title: How to add a paper to print media type
Post by: Dave Carter on April 22, 2009, 02:55:17 pm

I am using a Mac OS X version 10.4+ computer with an Epson 4880 printer.
My problem is I want to use a profile for 'Epson Premium Semigloss Photo Paper (250) created from Eye One.

In Print Settings:
      I set Page Setup to sheet
      Manual Feed
In Media Type drop down box there is a list of papers, but no Premium Semigloss Photo Paper.
How do I get this paper added to the list???

Thanks,
Dave

I think the only way to do that is to download and install the latest version of the Epson printer driver from the Epson website

Yes, I thought so also.  I all ready had downloaded the latest software, but it was no help.
However, I think I have found the problem.  I am trying to print on this paper using the Matte Black ink.  (I did not want to change for a small job - but I guess I will).
