Rescan the image it could be some kind of corruption to the image file. It
happened to me once.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Help! Mysterious Printing Problem


  I stayed up most of the night trying to figure this one out with no
  luck.

  I have two images, both landscapes, scanned from 120 film on my Nikon
  8000 at the same settings resolution, etc.  Brought both into PS6 and
  cleaned them up, adjusted curves, sharpened, croped, and resized to
  17" wide x 8" tall.  I then printed the first one on my 1280 on 13x19
  paper with no problem.  (using PC with XP, Piezo drivers)  The file
  size of both images is similar and slightly smaller than my usual
  file sizes.

  However, with the second image, the paper feeds and the print head
  lays down what I will call a "ghost" strip of ink, feeds the paper
  about an inch, lays down a second "ghost" strip of ink, and then
  ejects the paper.  I tried several times with no luck.  Shut down,
  restarted, power cycled the printer, same thing again.  I did not
  make any changes to the Piezo settings between prints.

  Next, I cropped the image and printed a portion of it on 8.5x11 paper
  with no problem.  Undid the crop and tried again - no luck.

  Next I went and made sure I had the latest version of Piezo.

  Any suggestions?
