Re: How to slow printing speed down with the Epson 3800

2009-10-11 by ssanking

Clyde,

I will look into this again. However, at some point in the past I did indeed create custom paper settings from the print display box, but so far as I can figure out these instructions were ignored when printing with QTR.

BTW, I am using the uni-directional setting in QTR, but that does not slow printing down enought.

You can create something like ten of these using the buttons and display on the printer itself, and select different ones using the same controls.  You can set a "drying time" high enough to make printing times agonizingly long.  Instructions are in the manual under "using special paper configurations".
