I had a printer with a similar problem. Cleaning the rollers (the little rubber rollers that feed the paper) with a q-tip and alcohol fixed the problem temporarily (these get old and stop grabbing the paper effectively). To replace them was as or more expensive than replacing the printer. This is assuming this is your paper feed problem.KarenOn Dec 3, 2013, at 11:47 AM, Chris Gralapp <[log in to unmask]> wrote:Lore,
I had one of those printers--I never warmed up to it--it was notoriously difficult to use. It made nice prints, but the muss and fuss was problematic, so I got rid of it and reverted to my ever faithful Epson 1280. So now I am unable to use the archival inks, but the prints are beaurtiful, and I don't tremble in apprehension every time I try to feed expen$ive large format paper in to it!
Good luck,
Chris

However, it's been a positive scrooge of late; miserly, resentful, and stubborn. Is this the sign of a terminal illness or the need for some TLC? Is this the general persona of the R1900 or have others had better luck with the paper feed? I'm beginning to feel a bit resentful myself!
