Cleavis, a couple of points.
First, I always print a nozzle check before any series of prints. Saves
paper!

Second, a step wedge should be the first thing you print when you encounter
a problem.  I have taken to incorporating a step-wedge in my progress
prints, especially when printing with a new paper, so that I can tell if
tonal problems are in the image or the process.

Future clue folks, if your print is solarizing then do a nozzle
check.  It turns out I was missing the entire second slot on the
pattern.  Realized that when I did a 'test strip' print and it was
light in the 75-80 slots.  you using? Paul's curves are written for EAM>
