EPSON EPL-5700L/EPL-5700i
Advanced
icon and click
Properties
(in Windows 98/95) or
Document Defaults
(in Windows NT 4.0).

Using the DMA
Faster printing with a Direct Memory Access (DMA) is possible
if your printer is connected to your computer through an
Extended Capability Port (ECP), a type of parallel port with
expanded specifications. With the DMA and the ECP, you can
send print-job data directly to the printer without going through
the CPU, which increases the effectiveness of data flow.
Before using DMA to transmit a print job confirm the following
points.
Check if your computer supports DMA. To confirm if your
computer has an ECP chip installed, contact the manufacturer
or look in the computer’s documentation.
Confirm the parallel port setting is “ECP” or “ENHANCED”
through the BIOS Setup. Refer to your computer’s
documentation to set the BIOS. However, before setting the
BIOS, uninstall the EPL-5700L/EPL-5700i printer driver.
After setting the BIOS, re-install the printer driver.
Confirming if you can use DMA
Using DMA increases your printing speed. You can confirm if
your computer can use DMA by checking the
Optional Settings
tab under
Properties
in your Printer driver.

Paper Handling
The printer can feed paper from either of two sources: the
standard paper-tray or the optional lower cassette.
Please note the following points:
Paper should be high quality and relatively smooth with a
weight between 60 and 90 g/m² (16 to 24 lb).
The printer is extremely sensitive to moisture. Be sure to store
your paper in a dry environment.
Use of colored paper is acceptable, but coated paper should
be avoided.
You may use paper with preprinted letterheads, provided
that the paper and ink are both laser-printer type.
Loading the paper-tray
You can load up to 150 sheets of plain paper into the paper-tray.
To load paper, follow these steps:
1. Lift off the tray cover.

edges. Insert the paper printable side up into the tray and
adjust the paper guides.
Note:
Before printing make sure the Paper Size setting in your printer
driver matches the paper you load.
3. Place the cover on the paper-tray.
