Have you checked your width also? If that is shrinking too then your legit in what your saying if not then Sat, 14 Nov 2009 03:32:03 GMT john http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Wide_Inkjet_Printers/message/2509 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Wide_Inkjet_Printers/message/2509 Yea, I know what you mean about Gallerie.
