1). Is this true when you swap paper rolls between the printers to rule out paper variability?

Hi Geoff,

Yes it is. I swapped the paper roles around. BTW, they are brand new, generic low-cost roles bought from Office Depot.

The 97, 95, 92 and 91 printers have the resistor and the portable infrared printers have a variable resistor selectable control.

I wouldn’t know, I never opened them.

Thank you for your input.
