From: Shooter on 26 Jun 2005 18:19 My only point was to highlight that paper can be the cause of head blocking, and in reply to the remark made by measekite instead I have had to go into chapter and verse. There is also another explanation for paper clogging heads, in that some papers loose small fibres which attach to the underside of the head and that also will give the same deflective firing or if you like head block, I have known cheap plain paper cause this. I am also sure there are other examples out there.
