I'll try again tonight, but I was only using one sheet at a time. I generally don't load piles of anything other than regular paper in the tray. Everything else, I only load as much as I'm going to need (I had a printer that gave me that habit when it would churn through 10 pages and only print a single character on it when it threw an error). I'll try the board method as well as "giving it a shove". I also ran across someone who attaches a strip of regular bond paper with doublestick tape and it'll pick that up and pull it through. I may try that as well. I love the texture of the Somerset Velvet and want it to work. --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@y..., Jerry Olson <jerryolson@r...> wrote: > You may have to feed this paper in one sheet at a time.
