streaking with PremierArt Hot Press on 1280

2004-02-04 by Allan Chen

>Hello all,

         I just tried some PremierArt Hot Press 325gsm paper recently, and 
have had some streaking problems.  Oddly enough, when I put the paper 
thickness lever over to the "+" it is a lot worse, with a faint gray 
"cloud" over the entire top of the image from the print head rubbing the 
ink.  When the lever is on "-" it streaks for 1 page, then is okay for 
another 6-8 pages.

         I did a search on thsi topic but got a lot of not-quite-right 
stuff.  Any suggestions on what to do?  I have burned through 4 pages of 
streaked prints vs. the 13 good prints I've made, a ratio which can get a 
bit expensive over time...

thanks,
allan
