Digital BW, The Print

Bill,

have you saved the thickness of your PhotoRag as one of the paper pre-sets? 
Unless it's the thin one, it will be radically heavier than EAM and could be a 
cause for misalignment of sorts.

I've heard of issues with high temp/humidity, and I wonder if you have tested 
specifically for that (i.e. tested if a/c makes a difference).

And, you are sure, air in the lines is not a possibility?

Is it always the same ink?

Have you tried the heavier "mainenance" cleanings?

For lots and lots of info specific to the 7000, got to the Epson 9000 list:

Hope it goes away! (like mine did with the Piezotones).
