Re: Epson R800 sheet feeder error

2006-07-13 by Roy Harrington

Hi Emmanuel,

The Epson manual is very vague about preloading heavy paper.  Which slot are
you putting the paper into?  The sheet feeder?  or roll paper slot?   I assume you
are pushing the bottom next to the power button.

I just tried this on my R800 (same versions QTR & OSX) and it seemed to work fine.
When you use the Epson driver -- which driver and selections are you using?
