With The Grain (WTG) is a printing term that refers to the direction in which the paper is fed through the printer. The majority of printers are designed to print on both sides of the paper at once, and therefore the paper must be fed through the printer in a way that allows both sides to be printed on.

WTG feeding means that the paper is fed into the printer so that the grain of the paper runs parallel to the direction of the print head travel. This is the optimal way to feed paper into a printer, as it allows for the best print quality and the least amount of jams.

When printing on both sides of the paper, the printer must first print on one side of the paper and then flip the paper over to print on the other side. If the paper is not fed into the printer properly, the printer will not be able to flip the paper over and will instead print on top of the already printed side. This can cause poor print quality and can lead to printer jams.

To prevent this from happening, it is important to make sure that the paper is always fed into the printer with the grain running parallel to the print head travel. This will ensure that the printer can flip the paper over correctly and print on both sides without issue.
