Is it possibly the paper?  Cut it 8 ½ square and turn it 90 degrees.

Best regards,

Steve,

thanks for the pointers. I presume that you are talking about the
roller that feeds the paper out of the hopper. This roller, however,
touches the paper before the inkject. I have tried high speed off,
but this did not change anything. I cannot see any indentation on the
front or rear of the paper. I might try cleaning the roller in case
it has some residue that is coating the paper before the ink hits.

I am surprised that this issue has not happened with others (or maybe
they don't print a 10*8 solid grey test page!).

BTW - Epson tech support was useless - referred me to a repair shop
200 miles away.

Regarding the inks, I was trying this printer before going to Eboni
ink - but am not now so sure - maybe I will stick with the 1270 and
the UT FS inkset.
