Digital BW, The Print

No they are not smears.  I guess the best way to describe it would be 
if I print an image there are thin black lines that appear over it. 
So the image prints out as if there is no problem except for the 
lines.  I've had the printer for two years and have never had this 
happen until I put in the carts from MIS last week.

I'm going to try and put the color ones back and see if it disappears.
