Thank you for your advice,

Using the Epson print driver, I have been able to print through the
Single Sheet Guide at the rear of the printer provided that I set the
paper type to Velvet Fine Art Paper.  (If you wish to use that slot a
message appears stating that you must use the Velvet Fine Art Paper
setting.)

However, using the rear manual feed slot has not been successful. 
Again with the Velvet fine Art Paper setting, but not otherwise, the
paper feeds but then a paper jam error message appears.  Anyway, this
paper feed slot is blocked so that it will not accept larger than A4
paper, not even US letter size.  This maybe one functional difference
with the European model as against the US model.  There may be others.

I then tried using the Single Sheet Guide with PKN inks and QTR, but
this doesn't work, presumably because there is no setting for Velvet
Fine Art Paper.

Could you please tell me what settings are possible on your R1800
because it might be worth my trying to use the US driver. 

Thanks,

Colin
