Digital BW, The Print

Hi Ann Marie:

I'm curious if the feed rollers are not working, or are they just not  
grabbing the paper?

The wheels have to be clean for any feeding technique to work. I  
usually take a letter-sized sheet of heavy paper (80# cover, or about  
250gsm) and spray about a 3 inch wide strip across the 8.5 inch  
dimension (toward the middle) with windex, and then run it through  
the printer a few times. The pre-feed button (press once to feed, and  
once to send it through). That, combined with a little nudge whiie  
feeding the paper, should help.

Good luck with it,

Andrew
