Re: Matte paper scraped by printhead

2007-03-12 by mattchapin2

I have had a similar problem.  With the Epson printer driver, I use 
the "Thick Paper and Envelopes" setting under Printer Settings -
>Maintenance->Printer and Option Information and it solves this 
problem.  Unfortunately, QTR does not have a similar option, which 
severely limits the range of papers that I can use with QTR... 
effectively ruling out most matte papers.
