Digital BW, The Print

Hello Chris,

I was able to eliminate the dither banding on my 2200 with BO printing
by doing a head alignment and selecting what normally is not an
optimum number.  Selecting the line number that looked best on the
test print (#8 if I remember correctly) did not reduce the banding. 
But I was in an experimenting mood and did it again with a lower
number (5 I think) and the banding was reduced some.  I kept trying
lower numbers and it kept getting better, down to #2 and it was
finally gone.  I used it for nearly two years that way and never had
to do it again.  I don't know if it will work on yours, but FWIW...  
I also printed with High Speed On, it gave better quality than Off. I
know that goes against common wisdom, but that's the way it was.

Regards,
Clayton
