Yes, the paper must have moved. The printer doesn't print a single solid
block of dots in each pass; it actually prints fairly widely spaced lines,
due to the spacing of the jets. It fills the gaps in later, as the paper
advances. You can see this easily enough if you abort a print and examine
the edge.
