Hallo, so far I did install the Win 2000 driver in win XP prof! Seems to work! OK! Prints well screen pattern and alignments are very close! But I can only use the 1 paper back feeder. Using the front feeder paper just rushes through. Pressing LF/FF paper do not go into "ready to print" place - - just rushes through. Is there a dirty diod or sensor checking the top of the paper? Where is it if it's the case? Someone else having this problem. Hey, I want to go quad with this printer! (And by the way, can you go quad with this printer in Win XP?) Leave it for service here in Sweden? (I can get another used printer for that money!) Suggestions? Fiat Lux!
