Digital BW, The Print

Roy,

I've noticed this pattern on my 1160 when printing out the ink limit test step wedges 
in calibration mode. The pattern does not show up in normal printing for me, even of 
a step wedge.

I'm using the older version of the software if that makes a difference. Hope this helps.
