RE: [Digital BW] microbanding

Julian, congratulations!
Looks like it's wedding time: for me it's June, 3, and I'm going from Italy
to a spanish island (Lanzarote).
By the way, back to your problem, have you tried printing with the epson
driver rather than with piezo? Just to make sure it's a hardware issue.

Austin, I'd very much like more info. I'm getting married in a couple of
days so my PC time is really limited - but I'll contact you after i get back
from Sicily (agreed not to take a camera so I'm just taking my Holgas!)
