Digital BW, The Print

Hello Sarah,

The main question for me is whether the "breaks" in the gradient are
actually in the image (and not visible on screen) and are being
accurately reproduced by the printer, or if they are being introduced
by the printer/driver, etc.  

A good way to find out is to make a print using the Black Ink Only
setting.  This will eliminate any possibility of the breaks being
caused by the driver's attempts to overlay different inks to
transition across densities in the gradient.  If the breaks are still
there then they are probably in the image itself.  


Regards,
Clayton
