Digital BW, The Print

Some papers may need help with getting started.  Between the eject button
and a little push while it starts, you can probably get the paper to feed
OK.  I suspect the paper is just not feeding all the way in.  Note where
it's supposed to be with a paper like EEM, and then see if the PhotoRag is
getting to that point.  Some papers seem to have surfaces that cause more
feed problems than other papers.

These printers have also been more susceptible to problems caused by concave
curl of papers.  Because the head is "vertical" instead of "horizontal," (at
least in the earlier versions of the printer), and bottom of the paper can
be beyond the main rollers while it is still printing.  The exit rollers are
all that are holding the paper at that point, and the head can more easily
strike corners that are curled up.

Subject: [Digital BW] C86 HRag 188 Paper Problem



C86 was printing fine with EEM.  I then switched to HRag 188 grm2 paper and
at 
times it will only print (starting from the top edge of paper) part of the
photo. It 
appears that it starts printing before the paper is in place and then the
paper is pulled 
in position and it's printing on the paper.

 Print Preview settings are checked for centered.  I will stop for a while
and run EEm 
paper through with the eject button, it will handle the HRag paper fine.
After a few 
sheets of the HRag paper the same thing happens.  I ran the alignment
program and 
the same thing happens.

I am also pressing the HRag paper under some heavy books to see if the
slight paper 
curl may be causing the problem.

By the way the EZ inks are great.  I been running the following ink
position, from left 
to right, Eboni, Warm, Neutral, and Neutral with no Brightness or Contrast 
adjustment.  It's just very slightly warmer than Eboni "BO" printing.  

Thanks,

Martin
