reaction to the process will be as well of course as to the imagery....

Wish me luck and in a way it will be  to all you/us  pioneers out there...

Andrew,

I can not speak for the roll version, but I have fed the much thicker 
sheet version (425 g/m2)into my 2000P without any problems, so the 
thinner roll version should work fine in that regard for both 
printers.

You may want to "reverse roll" your cut pieces - make sure you wear 
gloves to keep oils from the printable surface - and then slide a 
small Ziploc bag over each end and apply tape to the Ziploc bags to 
hold the roll tight (keeps the tape off the printable surface). Let 
that combo sit around for an hour or so (in a clean area) and then 
unroll and feed it into the printer - usually works.

Hope it helps!

Terry
