I will say something to our ink rep. To be honest with you I have not really checked the paper but we run multiple different brands.

Good day fellow printers, I have been having a problem lately with a lot of grit in my roller train. I have tried washing it out but have not been very successful. I could do a Calcium slayer and hot water rinse every evening just to try to stay after it. Has anyone seen this before? We are...
