HP 2100 paper curls
FredFarkle wrote:
Make sure the paper is within HP specifications. The paper should un-curl as it sits in the output tray. Also, when you load the paper, make sure you fan it to separate it. This is the single most important thing you can do to the paper to make sure your printer doesn't jam or multifeed. When paper sits in a ream, humidity and temperature cause the paper to stick together. When you fan the paper, it separates it. HtH Paul On Fri, 11 Jul 2003 18:16:38 GMT, "GeneM" spewed: In our office, we use an HP 2100, pretty nice usually. Recently we're getting bothersome transverse paper curls, with a multi-purpose paper, 8.5" x11", good quality, that works fine in a copier and in a fax. The lead edges lift up, with curling along the longitudinal axis of the paper (trying to form an 11" long roll). This problem shows in paper passed into the top-side output tray. Thinking further, I have not seen curls on paper passed straight through to the rear output. We clean and blow out the inside area as we change toner cartridges, so I'm thinking it's fairly clean inside. It appears that we're beyond warranty, and I can find no help on the HP site. (unless we pay somebody $80 while we wait in queue on the phone?) Thanks! -- GeneM Also, paper has a top and a bottom. You should be placing the paper in the printer so it prints on the top of the paper.
