A:AnswerHello Char. The thickest paper the ET-2850 can print on is Epson Ultra Premium Photo Paper Glossy which weighs 79 lb. (approx. 297 gsm). We have tested Epson Ultra Premium Presentation Paper Matte, which is the closest material to cardstock that works with the machine. However, that paper weighs around 44 lb. (approx. 165 gsm). You can always try cardstock that falls in between that range at your discretion, but please note that your results can vary when using 3rd party paper, as these recommendations are for Epson paper only. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
A:AnswerHi Paper. The Epson ET-2850 is not designed for dye-sublimation printing nor the use of non-genuine Epson Ink Cartridges. Using sublimation Ink in this printer can affect warranty coverage and create print head and ink-system issues. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

A:AnswerYou can scan the photo on this printer on 1200dpi to your mac or Pc and then crop the image to 5x7 size choosing the important portion of the image. This step is necessary because the ratio of your existing 4x6 image is not same as 5x7 image. When compared together, 4x6 will be wide in perspective and 5x7 will be taller in perspective. Once you crop the image then you can print it on the 5x7 photo paper
