Digital BW, The Print

Hello Kevin,

This sounds real strange.  Maybe it's different on a Mac.  I just hit
Ctrl-P and up pops the printer window.  I select the 2400, then the
Properties button and up pops the driver window.  On the Main tab is
the paper list and everything is available.


>But it warns you to load paper in the rear manual slot.

That happens to me as well, but then I click OK and go back to the
picklist and reselect "Sheet" and go ahead and use the top feeder, for
everything from 1/4 sheets to 13x19.  Even real thick papers.  They
usually require a little nudge to get it started.  Also I bend a small
bit of curl to the leading edge.  Once you get the knack you can make
it take anything.  The rear feeder is quite strange and finicky and I
never use it.

If you save the settings you can just pick your custom settings from
the list and you won't get the feeder warning (this is described in
article #9).

Regards,
Clayton
