When my original R800 stopped accepting paper, I found that I could 
eventually get it to work again but only with plain paper and only if I 
had a stack of it in the feed tray.  Yours could be afflicted with a 
similar problem.  The new one seems fine in this regard but it hasn't 
done a lot of work yet.

FWIW, Epson Tech Support were extremely helpful.  They guy I spoke to 
asked me a few questions, including how old the machine was, then gave 
me a DOA authorisation number without any prompting from me and in 
spite of the fact that it was just outside their 14 day window for such 
things.

Doesn't sound like anyone else has tried feeding sheets into the roll 
slot on an R800 then...

Thanks anyway,
