Re: [Digital BW] Roller marks on Semigloss (Stylus 2100 with UT7)

2004-09-22 by Daniel Staver

You can lock the wheels with small plastic strips. Open the top cover of 
  the printer and insert the plastic strips between the wheels and the 
cages they are sitting in. You might get some side effects if you do 
borderless printing, but normal printing will work just fine.

I'm not sure if I explained this clearly enough, but the point is to 
lock the wheels in an upward position so that the wheels don't touch the 
paper.
