Digital BW, The Print

Seth!
I can see your point about over obsessive customers (I am obsessive 
too :-) not willing to interpret and understand the results of this 
or that test pattern and instead bugging the tech support ad 
nauseum. Perhaps this was one reason why Epson removed all those 
service manuals from their website some time ago. But I am rather 
happy too know now a little bit more how my printer works (or 
doesn't).

Anyhow, my printer is off to adjustment at an authorised service 
centre (PG is so very obviously off - the print head is actually 
hitting/scraping paper surface on the right hand side of A3 paper). 
Let's see how it folds out and if my interpretation of service 
programme's printouts have been right or wrong.  Also I will try to 
determine if the the print quality improves after adjustment.
