Digital BW, The Print

I've got a 3000 which is the same mechanically as the 1520, which I've just
repaired.

One thing comes to mind and that is that the head might have an ink build-up
on the head making it collect drops while the prints are going through, then
dropping them at random.

You might want to try a small amount of windex on te cleaning pads to see if
it helps.
