I checked your comment on that some weeks ago. On the samples I printed 
I do not see it, not on the Zs or the B.
On the B9180 there are star wheel after the printing phase and I do not 
see how they could do the harm if they still roll.  The pinch wheels on 
the paper transport roll could damage the surface like they did on the 
Z3100's but that happens before the printing phase if the low paper tray 
is used. They touch the leading edge of the paper twice if the upper 
paper insert is used. Anyway I think I can handle that issue. Exchanging 
the pinch wheels with softer versions (Z3100 solution) may even be possible.

The curl and the quality of both sides of the paper is my main concern 
right now. I have not used the rolls.
