This happened to me on my 2200.  I found that a head alignment fixed
it, but not in the normal way.  Choosing the best line pair didn't
help, so I began experimenting with choosing lower numbers and it got
better each time.  Finally using #2 the banding disappeared.  so some
experimenting with that might help.
