Single Sheets

1.	Open the paper support and pull up its extension.

2.	Open the front cover.

Make sure the front tray is in the paper (lower) position. If it is not, lift up the tray lever to reposition the front tray to the paper position.

Caution:
Before you move the tray lever, make sure no paper or other objects are on the front tray and the front tray is not extended.

Do not touch the front tray when you move the tray lever.

Do not move the tray lever while the RX580 is printing.

Note:
If the tray is in the CD/DVD (upper) position when you turn the RX580 on, the LCD screen will display an error message. Move the tray to the lower position to clear the error.

3.	Slide out the front tray extensions.

4.	Slide the left edge guide to the left.

Note:
If the hinged feeder guard is in the way, flip it forward.

5.	Insert the paper, printable side up, against the right edge guide and behind the tabs.

 

You can load up to 120 sheets of plain paper or up to 20 sheets of photo paper. (See Special Papers for capacity guidelines on other paper types.)

Note:
The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks, so be sure to select the correct paper for your job. If you are just printing a rough draft of an image, plain paper is fine. However, for the best results, you’ll want to use one of Epson’s special ink jet papers designed for your RX580. For example, your photos will look great printed on Epson Ultra Premium Photo Paper Glossy. See Special Papers for more information.

If you’re inserting a stack of paper, fan the stack and then tap it on a flat surface to even the edges before you insert it.

6.	Slide the left edge guide against the left edge of the paper (but not too tightly).

 

Follow these guidelines when loading paper:

•	Leave enough space in front of the RX580 for the paper to be fully ejected.

•	Don’t load paper above the arrow on the left edge guide. Make sure the paper is under the tabs on the left and right edge guides.

•	Load the printable side face-up. It’s often brighter or whiter than the other side.

•	Always load the short edge first, even when printing in landscape mode.

•	Load letterhead or preprinted paper into the RX580 top edge first.

•	If you experience paper feeding problems, try loading fewer sheets.

•	If you’re using special paper, follow the instructions that came with it.
