You
can purchase high-resolution ink-jet paper at the University
Bookstore. The AAPG club has offered to sell photo-quality
printing paper in the near future. Do not attempt to use
photo quality settings with regular paper because the ink
will saturate the paper causing it to wrinkle and jam in the
printer.
Remove the regular paper from the Epson printer and load
your photo paper.
