Digital BW, The Print

Hello Sarah,

>I have gone through the archives and found your suggestion, Clayton, 
>to set the alignment to a lower number, so I set it to #2 as you had. 
>I am finding the dither pattern different, more horizontal now, but 
>not really any better.

>ink/paper)!

I understand your frustration (been there, got the t-shirt and the
coffe mug).  I can't find any earlier posts in this topic, so I don't
know exactly what the problem is (there are two kinds of banding). 
Dither banding is very small banding that usually only shows up in
certain zones, ususlly dark ones around II or III.  I was never able
to totally get rid of this, but using the low alignment number
minimized it to where a glass was needed to see it.   Microbanding is
more noticeable and occurs everywhere regardless of zone.  This is
usually caused by a clogged nozzle.  Does your problem fit into either
of these?

Regards,
Clayton
