Hi Darrell, This must be new, since this originally was only to measure the overall length, to see if the transport was slipping...not to compare the two sides. Are you sure about comparing the two sides? That just doesn't make sense to me... > Both my printers are slightly longer on one side than > the other.

It's a front feed printer, which is what adds to the problem. If you are having paper feed problems, feed it from the rear. I have no problem feeding from the front though with Epson Heavyweight Matte paper. Regards, Austin - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
