I think you'll find QTR and the Epson driver lay down the ink in a
different fashion at the ends of the image.  The Epson approach hides the
paper transport inaccuracies better on at least several printers I've had.
 The top & bottom microbanding happens when only one paper transport roller
is engaged.  So, I often use wider margins top and bottom to avoid the
issue.  I might add that, outside of image edges that are too close to the
top and bottom of the paper, QTR produces smoother prints than the Epson
driver in a number of printer-inkset combinations I use that are compatible
with both approaches.
