This happens with many papers. With the larger printers, it's common 
for an adjustment to be made within a RIP to change the paper feed to 
compensate for the difference is feed rate. You can also do this at a 
hardware level, but you would need to sacrifice a little over a meter 
of paper to print the pattern, and then measure it to get the 
compensation value. I don't know if you can do this in the hardware 
for the smaller printers.
