My client has almost the same problem on his 4000/Panther but only uses sheet paper. 
The 4000 will start printing at the very leading edge of the paper - for about two inches - 
then compose itself and begin printing within the normal margins.

It occurs about 5% of the time. It occurs with QTR and it might happen with the Epson 
driver but my client uses the Epson driver so little that he isn't totally sure.

I'll install the Jaguar USB fix and see how it goes. Thanks for the info everyone.
