Take a piece a scrap paper and some scotch tape and tape the scrap piece
to the back of a good piece such that about 2/3 of the scrap hangs out
over the good one. Feed that into your printer, scrap end first. It may
take a bit of trial and error to get the exact placement of the scrap
paper right, but I would think the second attempt should work if the first
doesn't.

Is this really a pdf file? I'll try and get to it soon. Lots to do at the
moment, so forgive any delay.
