Digital BW, The Print

The paper I'm trying to use is 315 gsm (Innova STNW). Since the printer is new (refurbished) I think the rollers are probably clean. The problem is that the rollers grab the paper ok but then an error is generated (flashing red light) and the paper is ejected. My guess is there's a "paper thickness sensor" that is being triggered by the slightly too thick paper. If I could set the "envelope" switch the print head would move a little further away from the paper. Unfortunately the envelope setting is done in the driver instead of manually (I think).

Thanks
