QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi Juraj,

I got your data -- all exactly correct.  It all confirms that you are doing
what I expected.

Eric reports that he's not had trouble with his 4800 and I have a 4000 which
is very similar and
not been a problem.  The only unusual thing I see in your case is the 13inch
paper and I
imagine that this may be rarely used.  This being the problem seems like a
long shot but
you never know.

I think you can work around this by making your paper size 17x9.5 instead of
13x9.5.
Naturally you have to adjust the margins because of this and be sure not to
print off the
paper.  The printer may also do a paper size check.  If you get a error on
the printer panel
for this you can disable the check.  On the 4000 its under Menu > Printer
Setup > Paper Size Check.
It's probably similar Just set it to OFF.

In your first post you mentioned that the printer is not pulling in the roll
before printing.  This is
another good observation.  Continue to watch that in the tests.

Thanks,
Roy
