I support this. I've never had much banding on my own 2100 on 1440 
dpi, but know others that had and, in that case, going to 2880 dpi 
removed the banding. I went to 2880 for dmax and smoothness reasons. 

But using 1440 dpi curves with a 2880 setting and fiddling with ink 
limits to get it right is not the way to go. If you want a 2880 dpi 
setting you must design your curves appropriately. I have some 2880 
dpi curvers for the 2100/UT3D/PhotoRag combo if you're interested.
