Hello Robert,

I used the 1800 with 3MK and was having the occasional micro banding
issue. I installed a 4th MK cart in the Cyan position (duplicating the
MK curve to the C curve in QTR and reducing the ink loads to 3x 52.5%)
and to my eye the prints seem a little bit better. I have never since
seen micro banding.
