Re: tips feeding 300 gsm/2200 ?

2005-09-21 by djon43

Thanks RGoldman... 

I asked here because I'd thought topics other than MIS could be
addressed. 

Yes, I've had awkward (but 100%) success feeding 300gsm Entrada
Natural from the top...it's a convenience on my desktop, though it
requires the attentions you've described and is harder in high humidity.

Oddly, I ran into much more difficulty with whitened Entrada than I've
had with Natural...and I do think it has a different physical spring
to it.

I did get immediate real help from the Yahoo 2200 site... only one
snippy response that failed to show the courtesy to address the
question. As some of us know, the manual doesn't fully address the
heavy paper issue. 

Incidentally, I use a PC...irrelevant to the printer's mechanics Vs
heavy paper.
