Thanks Paul,
It may also be related to the ink.
The EPSON monitor said they were almost empty.
So I filled them but non were less than half full.
The issue is much better but not perfect.
This will lead to my next question.

Thanks
Mike J.

The 1400 needs both sets of its paper feed rollers engaged to avoid
microbanding.  So, there need to be substantial margins at the top and
bottom of the paper.  Thick paper probably has more problems with paper
transport issues and banding than thinner paper.
