RE: [Digital BW] paper slipping

Have you tried to put cardboard the same size of the paper right behind it? This sometimes helps with the loading. The cardboard needs to be thick enough so that the printer doesn't try to feed it instead of the paper. David Myers

After the first cartridge went through, it seems the platen or whatever the intake wheels are called is starting to slip and I have to take each sheet and give it a nudge to go through. I suspect that the culprit is the coating put on the paper to keep the ink from soaking in. Any suggestions on how to clean the paper intake mechanism and wheels to get it back going again on it's own? I set the paper setting to + (plus) to allow for this thick paper.
