Thank you. Mark, for your help and suggestions. As a result I was able to print beautiful prints. You could see the resulting prints at www.LightFromArt.com. Roll holder and cutter work fine too. I have only two remaining problems: 1. After printing one print, roll automatically unloaded and I have to load it again for the next print. 2. Sometime the printer starts loading paper. Move it forward to find out that it is enough paper on the roll and then move paper automatically back and unload paper completely. In some cases I have to repeat loading paper 2-3 times before it will be ready to print. May be it was not so curved compare with initial state after repeating this several times. That is way it goes well on third time. I was using Q5491A HP Premium Plus Photo Satin, 24" roll, 50 ft paper.
Do you have any solution to this problem?
