Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Printing with r1800 "manual roll" feed alignment problem

2006-09-28 by Roy Harrington

Hi Ian,

Someone else had this problem.   I've been looking into it but so far
I haven't deciphered the magic sequence that the printer needs.
I think I can get use of a R1800 next week to try some more ideas.

I think most papers can be coaxed into the sheet feeder even if they
are a bit thick.  Give the paper a slight nudge as it is fed by printer.
