Digital BW, The Print

I had the same thing with my C84. It was under warranty and Epson 
checked it saying nothing was wrong. I came into conclusion it was the 
paper batch. It just curled when off of the guides and caused similar 
symptoms as you describe. Then with a new papers (I used Epson HWM) it 
worked ok, until the heads clogged and tossed it.
