Ah, I never saw or even heard of that one!

Hum.  I don't recall ever hearing about the thick banding issue...but I did
hear about the screen door issue.  I've been using 1160s and 3000s since
Piezo came out, and never ran into either of these issues.

Could very well be.  Were you on a Mac or a PC?  I'm on a PC.
