Al,

If you are getting the acordian effect on your paper feed you can just clean
the rollers. I have saved countless printers by just cleaning the rollers on
them. Whenever I have a feed issue I break out my cleaning solution and
clean the rollers off and it is as good as new. You might want to try that
before spending money on another printer, the stuff I use is at the office,
I will stop by there today and find out what it's called and let you know if
you would like.

Jon
