I recently picked up this printer and while it's generally great, I had some issues this weekend.
Printed an 13x19" shot, and with about 1" left, it fed out the paper without finishing the print. The end of the print faded out and (ie.- didn't do a complete pass) cut off.
I cancelled the job, then it tried to re-print it (my fault, as I didn't cancel at the PC as well), so it obviously knew it hadn't finished the print.
Then I resent the job, and around the same place where it cut off last time, it shifted the image about 1/2". Imagine if it was a straight line, and the last 1" was moved up, so the line was broken.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this? At first, I figured it was a network problem (printer's hooked into a wireless bridge, and there isn't much of a different option that doesn't involved 50ft of cable and a lot of creative cable layout) for the first issue, but the second one has me a bit confused. I've printed this same image in the past on the same paper and same printer setup with no problem.
