Digital BW, The Print

Hi,

Thanks Tim!

So far all screens ok - Ink and head is OK!! (Jipiee! So far!)
(Using the orginal colour carts and ordinary letter size copy paper.)

*But* the front feeder don't take the paper.

I'm just now using the buttons on the printer for "test prints".
(LF + ON)!

The front rubber-puller seems to be ok - cleaned them with alcohol.
So there must be other rubber puller inside??

Two questions (Windows XP):
1/Is it ok to use the single sheet backfeeder (I'll anyway do single 
prints) EEM (EAM that is?) 17"x24"
2/ What driver for Win XP  (NT driver or Win2000)???

This might be a lucky day??

Regards
Fiat Lux!
Bo
