I was printing today with my 2200, UT7 and Innova 300g glossy paper
and got some of the famous wheel marks.

I did a search in various places, found someone selling a $24 gizmo to
lift the wheels and a reference to using zip ties (tie wraps) to lift
the row of pizza wheels.

Has anyone here bought and used the $24 gizmo?

Ayone know about the zip tie mod? I'm sure I can invent something
either way. 

Any other ways to eliminate the wheel marks are welcome.

Thanks

Hi Neil:
I don't know about the gizmo thingy, but Mediastreet has the flags to hold 
the wheels up. Just don't remove the rubber "tires".

I'll look into the media street thing/wedge. 

As I mentioned I know one reason I have the prblem is using the UT7
w/o any curve and it puts alot of ink down.

Other glitch.  While half asleep this morning I remembered that I
thought I was was supposed to use Matt/Ebony even on glossy papers
with UT7.  I had PK in the printer.  DOH!  So I re-read Pauls
instructions and sure enough I had been doing it wrong.  

But of course the only 2 Ebonys I have here insist they tell the 2200
they are glossy/PK. Nothing, no way, no how can I get the 2200 to
believe the Ebonies are really Ebonies and not glossy. So MIS is
closed for the Xmas/New Years week so I haven't been able to contact
and return them.

This is all to get a good workflow with the new current Crane SR,
Hana' Fine Art Pearl and Innova Glossie (maybe me favorite of the 3).

Any and all UT7 2200 suggestions for the above papers feel free to
chime in.

Thanks

Neil
