If you use tractor feed when printing graphics, you will get some over-printed lines and some skipped lines, due to the tractor pulling unevenly in the sprocket holes in the paper. When I print graphics on my MT-180L, I put the carraige in platten-feed mode — letting the platten grip the paper to pull it through. Prints graphics better that way. James.

Hmm, and I who thought, that the tractor feed would ensure a firmer and more precise grip on the paper. That calls for a few experiments. Thanks, J0RGEN
