Re: Wasting paper on a roll

2007-12-02 by jurajlipscher

Hallo everybody

I have tried the following remedies:

1. To select the roll feed with automatic cutter on in the printer
display and in QTR.
2. To select the roll feed with automatic cutter on in the WINDOWS ->
System -> Printers ->4800 -> Properties as the standard setting and
also in QTR.
3. I tried to transport the paper on the roll backwards using the
appropriate button on the printer display. I was able to transoprt the
paper backwards but it was pulled out again after the "print" command
has been given.

Alas none of these brought any improvement and I am still loosing the
same amount of paper.

Any new ideas anybody?

Thank you
Juraj
