Digital BW, The Print

IBM Photo Quality Matte coated (on one side) inkjet 8.5x11 paper (very 
inexpensive) that I use to test my inkjet images before proofing 13x19.

    I keep a stack on the shelf behind my Epson; and when I borrowed some 
plain paper from the laser tray to do the Epson head check, then returned 
the unused paper to the laser tray, I also picked up an unknown number of 
sheets of the coated paper.

    UPDATE: Yesterday I laser-printed postcards (1,000 passes), and toward 
the end of the run the squeaking STOPPED! This morning I turned the Minolta 
back on, and STILL NO SQUEAK; so hooray!

    But I'm mystified...
