These lines define what resolution settings QTR supports for the 
given printer.  You should be able to find a line with the setting 
you noted in step 1.

unidirectional. E.g. 1440x720swuni/1440 x 720 DPI Unidirectional...

I had the exact same problem with my 9600 causing banding with 
bidirectional printing.  I tried this edit in the print-9600.bat 
file in QTR and it completely solved my banding problem.
Original line "set RES=1440x720fourp"
New line "set RES=1440x720fourpuni"

Thanks for the info.
