Re: Museo Max and 1800 or 2400

2006-03-02 by ginnylady33

Howard,
 Just curious, did you ever solve the problem with Max? I recently had
similar problems with Museo Max jamming in my printer. I tried loading
it front and rear and also using the thick paper setting, to no avail.
 To my eye, I agree, it is WAY thicker than VFA. At least the batch I
have is.

Best Regards
Ginny
