There are a few settings that would be incompatible with photo paper:

 

  • Duplex printing.  Duplex printing is not supported with Photo paper.
  • Print in Grayscale: Black ink Only.  The pigmented black ink is not compatible with photo paper.
  • Econofast.  Fast Draft or Econofast print modes may preclude selecting Photo paper.  (At a dollar a sheet, the relatively poor print quality of Econofast or Fast Draft mode is not a good fit.)
