Roy the 17.5mm was indeed NOT enough to stop the rollers losing grip. Well, put it this way: the paper skewed sideways and messed up the last few mm of the print. It happened on several prints in a row. And yet normal printing from Photoshop on Windows 5 minutes' later was totally fine. I don't begin to understand how the print driver might affect the roller grip, but that's sure how it looked. Do you have any idea why the custom paper sizes (A4 plus A4 centred, etc.) might have gone? I realise all this sounds a bit odd, but I'm no oddball and technically proficient, just mildly perplexed. thanks andrew > Hi Andrew, > > I haven't used the Windows printer option so I'm not sure how you set > that up in the past.
