Daniel, I would tend to think it's not a nozzel issue based on the following: 1) the Epson 
driver prints are perfect (except of course for color shifts which is why I'm trying QT 
anyway). It's not a situation where one is not "quite as bad" as the other. 2) perhaps more 
telling is that the QT print issue is repeatable. The exact same areas are effected on 
multiple prints, even at different print sizes (100% and 50% scaling for example).
