Digital BW, The Print

Well... maybe it is indentations. I say this because, after looking 
more closely, I noticed that the dots do not appear until after the 
ink is being laid down on the print and then begin to disappear(two 
or three into the margin) after inking stops. I don't understand, 
however, why wheel indentations would be noticeably darker than the 
area they are being pick up from. I'll have to do some experimenting 
I guess to focus in on the source of the problem. Oh, is removing the 
wheel difficult?
