Re: epson 2400 smudging

[Joseph Smigiel <jsmigiel@net-link.net>]

Is it possible the thickness of the paper is causing the problem?  Is  
there an adjustment lever on this printer that might be set  
incorrectly for a different thickness of paper?  I'm not familiar  
with the 2400 but IIRC some older Epsons had a sort of a normal/full- 
tilt ink lever and I think some adjusted for thickness.

Are you using a backing sheet when printing?  I've had trouble with a  
2200 without such a sheet.
