[Digital BW] Re: Epson and Black and White Prints

Harry, When you choose Velvet Fine Art in Print Setup, you should get 
a message that says you have to use the "Manual Roll" setting on the 
printer. If you feed the paper through the regular tray, it doesn't 
work properly, as you have found. You have to use the tray behind the 
regular paper holder. This is all described in the printer booklet. I 
can't fine mine, otherwise I would tell you which page.
