Re: [Digital BW] 1160 Paper Feed Question

2004-01-23 by James Haney

Rita,

I take a sheet of PhotoRag or Somerset velvet or German Etching, basically
any 200+ weight paper and spray about 3 squirts on one side of the sheet.
Not enough to soak it which would cause problems.

I try not to spray the very lead edge of the paper. If it gets soggy it
won't feed.

I then feed this sheet through 3 times. It might be a good idea to flip the
sheet over on the second run through to make sure you are hitting the bottom
rollers as well, but I never have and it may not matter.

Obviously, it is not an exact science but it does seem to do the trick.

James
