In terms of page layout, the UltraSmooth Fine Art (USFA) Media Type in the Epson driver works differently than the other media types. When USFA is selected for the Media Type, the Paper section of the Epson driver shows a new subsection called Printable Area. Within this subsection, there are two radio buttons (Standard and Maximum) and a checkbox titled Centered. By default, the Standard choice is selected, and the Centered checkbox is not checked. With these default settings, prints will have a smaller printable area than usual, and instead of being centered they will be shifted towards the top (i.e., leading) edge of the sheet. To resolve this issue, click the Maximum option and check the Centered box. Note that other choices of Media Type (e.g., Velvet Fine Art) in the driver do not show this Printable Area section. I’m not sure why USFA behaves differently.
