[Leica] Epson 3800 and Large Thick Paper Help

[gregj_lorenzo at hotmail.com (Greg Lorenzo)]

Put on my thinking cap and figured it out myself (roller cleaning). Did the 
cleaning and presto prints first time every time.

 

This was an expensive lesson (4 Sheets @ $7.50/sheet) resulting in two more 
then acceptable prints. If this hadn't worked I was going to adjust the 
Epson 3800 with my 12 gauge wrench. That was the ultimate fate of my last 
Epson 2000 printer (the 4th one Epson supplied me with during the warranty 
period) which I hate to this day.
