Digital BW, The Print

A long stratech but possible cause are the rollers. If you run a piece of paper 
through the printer a 2nd time before the ink dries the ink can be transferred 
to the rollers. The next piece of paper may have that ink transfered and appear 
to be microbbanding.

Use large margins top and bottom. Many modern printers need both sets of rollers 
engaged to print without microbanding.
