I have a routine from Don Lancaster, that does a Gray Grid over a sheet
of paper.  I've noticed that this routine, will partialy feed a page, then
turn the paper output feed rollers on, and sit there spinning for close to
a minute, before going ahead and feeding the paper, with the printed
image.  I am not sure why it does it.
There is nothing oddball in the code.  It seems really straight forward
stuff.

I will test your routine on my QMS -PS-810 and report back...
