QTR, R2400 & Rear Sheet Feed problem

2007-01-11 by Gary Benson

Hi Folks,

I'm having a problem with QTR and the manual rear sheet feed on my new Epson 2400.  
This is the Manual Rear Feed (Roll) setting in QTR.  On my system/printer the paper is not 
positioned correctly when it starts printing.  Instead of positioning the paper to center the 
image, it begins printing even before the far left edge of the paper is under the print head, 
then continues printing.  The particular image I printed had a landscape orientation.  I 
have not tried printing an image with a portrait orientation (although I wouldn't think that 
should matter).  The final printed image is shifted to the far left side of the paper instead 
of being centered.   The same image prints just fine when I print directly from Photoshop 
using the rear sheet feed on the 2400.  QTR positions the paper and prints from 
the top sheet feeder on my 2400 just fine.  QTR also works fine when I use the rear sheet 
feed on my Epson 2200.  I am using the latest version of QTR on a Windows XP system.  

I've posted this problem to the QTR forum and got a response from one other person 
having the same problem.  Roy Harrington isn't aware of this a known problem and so I'm 
trying to find out if others are experiencing it and then provide feedback to Roy.

So, for anyone using QTR on the Epson 2400 -- please let me know whether the manual 
rear sheet feed is working for you ok or not.  If this is a widespread but little mentioned 
problem, then I can let Roy know and I'm sure he'll figure out a solution/fix.  If not, I'm 
back to square one (and keeping my 2200 for those heavy fine art papers we love).

Thanks alot!
