QTR2 problem - Horizontal lines with 2100

2004-01-20 by Daniel Staver

Hi,

has anybody experienced problems with horizontal lines through the
prints using QTR and the 2100 printer?

I've struggled with this problem all of last autumn, and I've pretty
much had to abandon QTR entirely because I can't manage to get rid of
the lines.

They look like this:

I just printed a calibration page on Ilford Smooth Pearl and the lines
are visible in every ink. I've also done alignments, but that doesn't
help either.

I'm using the 1440x720hq2 setting.

I would think it's a clog, but prints from the Epson driver look
perfect, even BO prints, and nozzle checks are also good. I sent the
printer in for service before christmas and was given a refurb in place
of the old one. Still same problem.

I've gone through some old QTR test strips that I printed a long time
ago, and they don't have this problem.

I wonder what happened...
