Digital BW, The Print

Hello Sarah,

For what it's worth I did purchase mine brand new from an authorized
dealer with big volume. So it might be a late production model. I
don't know for sure.

After having a few issues with banding, I finally learned to calibrate
the print heads correctly and since then, perfect BO3 (3MK) prints.
Amazing I should say. No paper feed issues either even with 350gsm.

There is the R1900 coming out in November. You might want to wait for
this one to come out? Or the 1400 I know Paul Roark will be testing
soon for 3MK printing that might be a good choice too.
