Mark, Those pizza wheels are clearly there for a reason. Epson tries to print as close to the bottom of the paper as possible. If the wheels are gone and the paper has a bit of curl, the head might hit it. If you have room, move the image up on the paper by having some white image area at the bottom of the image. Also, bend the bottom corners down a bit if the paper is slightly curved.

Has anybody else had this problem? Basically I cannot get Permajet A3+ glossy paper to go through the printer. It won't quite eject the paper at the end of the print cycle and gets snagged up with the print head. I just ran an A3+ sheet of photorag through and it is fine. I think therefore it is a combination of the glossy slipperiness of the paper and the fact that there are no pizza wheels. Has anyone else had/solved this problem? The prints look great with UT2 on this paper so I'd like to carry on using it. I've had no problems with A3 smooth pearl. Still waiting for a box of A3+ to arrive.
