First, to all: Thanks much for the suggestions. I'm glad to hear that it's
not a big deal to flatten the cut sheets.

Phritz, see this, EUR 150 is high compared to their (EUR 86 + tax?) price:

ah, perfect
i just looked around for the agfa copyjet film and i can get 42cm x 30m
rolls. one for appr. 150euro.
i remembered that you just talked about ordering the stuff in rolls. how do
you cut it?
also i'm interested if you find a solution to the curling problem.
maybe taping it to a substrate?

Hi all,
I just ordered two 17" x 100' rolls of Agfa SelectJet (CopyJet in sheet form). I plan cut the rolls into 13x17" sheets, which is perfectly fine for the images I plan to print.
My question is: Probably the cut sheets will curl. What should/can I do in order to flatten them?
My printer (HP B9180) doesn't accept roll media + it also needs perfectly flat media to work properly...
Thanks in advance,
Loris.
