As an experiment, we've changed the way the laser printer stacks output.
A friend from Boston tipped us off that if the paper falls about a foot
to a tray, instead of sliding onto a ramp at once, it generally curls
around so that it is face-down. This means that the resulting stack of
paper is first-page-first, instead of first-page-last as it is on the
ramp. We suspect that getting the pages in the right order is worth not
being able to see the output as easily. If you disagree, or if you see
the new setup malfunctioning in some way, please let us know.
The control software has been changed to match, so that the header page
is now printed first instead of last (i.e. it's on top of the pile when
the pile is turned print-side-up).
