Digital BW, The Print

Bjorn:

I think it is most likely a software/driver problem.  Many folks have 
reported banding using the PiezoBW driver on the 1160, but report no 
banding if using the Epson driver (with the 1160 RGB Partitioned 
Workflow) on the same printer.  Note:  The 1160 RGB workflow was 
developed for the original PiezoBW and MIS/FS inksets.  I haven't 
tested it with the PiezoToneWN inkset, but it should be close.
