Digital BW, The Print

I am not sure the problem is BO per se.  When I do test prints on EEM (with
QTR or BO) I find that solid black areas, eg sky, get corrugations in
density about an inch or so apart. Not banding just undulations in darkness.
I suspect it is more something to do with a lot of ink hitting a thin paper
and the way it dries.  I have no such problems with HPR.

Definitely let me know if you find a solution.  For me it happens in
the darkest areas too.  My prints have a lot of dark tones (see
www.brashares.com if you're interested) and in other kinds of prints,
with no solid blacks, it would be hard to see it-- I wonder if the
problem is common but others don't notice...
