Re: [Digital BW] Harmon Gloss FB AL & Epson 3800 front loading problem

Are you aligning the paper correctly when it goes in the feed? The right 
edge of the paper goes against the right side of the tray and the bottom 
edge is aligned with the white line on the tray.

Hi,

i'm trying to get some A3+ (19x13) prints done urgently on Harmon Gloss FB 
AL paper using
my Epson 3800 via the front manual feeder. I've tried using the rear manual 
feeder
previously which works fine but i'm getting pizza tracks on the darker 
prints so i switched to
the front manual feeder. The problem now is that the print gets chopped off 
slightly more
than a 1/4 of an inch at the top and at the bottom.

My image size is 18x12 inches. Under the paper setup, i have a custom paper 
size set up to
19x13 but with 1/2 inch borders all around. This works fine using the rear 
feeder but using
the front feeder, the sides are ok (1/2 inch border on the left and right) 
but the top and
bottom have a border of slightly more than 3/4 inch (i.e. cutting off my 
image at the top and
bottom).

Appreciate any help as i've wasted quite a bit of paper trying to figure out 
what is wrong.
Thanks!

Derrick
