>i have a minor problem once every 6 or 8 months. the printer is always turned off when not in use for more than about 15 minutes. this caps the heads and preserves the ink. i also print at least once a week because that is how often i have a batch of photos to print. i have concluded that i wore out my Epson 1270 printer by printing so much that the carriage friction wore irregularities into the rail and caused mistracking of the head.
>Herb.... That's useful to know, thanks! Just turned off printer -- it was turning on every time I booted. Marnie aka Doe
