Re: [Digital BW] Premature page eject with B&W printing

Howdy Jer (and All..!),

I have a similar problem with my 2000p from a Mac G4... after 4 or 5 
13x19 prints, print quality either goes to hell, or the page 
continues through the printer, getting no ink but for the initial 
inch or so that fades to nothing...

a head cleaning usually fixes it, but the inconvenience sucks!

if it's a memory problem, do you mean more ram in general or just 
more devoted to the epson driver..?
