"Are you talking about the paper moving as it leaves the rollers and making a double edge on the end inside the printer?" Richard, that's sort of it. It looks like the image is finished printing but the paper isn't being pushed out. I have to physically remove it and still the printer keeps making noise likes it's printing for about 20 seconds. The result is the double edge on the end of the print, but only on one side. The other side prints fine. I wonder if thicker paper might help the printer grab the paper to push out....the Entrada I'm using is only 190 gsm. If thicker paper isn't the answer, I"ll try printing on larger paper and cutting....something I"m loathe to do just because I"m not that good at cutting perfectly, even with a paper cutter.

The smallest I ever print with this paper is A5, however, which leaves more space around the print. You may just have to make the image smaller. Or use a larger piece of paper (A5/half letter) and cut it down after printing. > > I print on Entrada 300 a lot and never have any such problems. > > But PremierArt Matt BW is a good cheaper alternative. > > I find that tech support people often know less than we, the consumers, do - sadly. > > Richard > > At 05:00 a.m. Tuesday 12/08/2008, you wrote: > >I'm trying to print on Moab Entrada double sided 4x6 paper for some promo cards, and the > >printer won't release the paper properly, but keeps going, thus I get double images on the > >edges.
