Color Banding Issue

#1 bhanke11039 2 years ago

Wonder if anyone has experience with this issue. Print starts off fine then progressively gets worse, lines blurred around edges and background bands and gets darker see attached about 1/4 of the way through. We duplicated profile, did new calibration prior to printing this. Thanks for any help.

HP Latex 360 did drop detection test and very few nozzles out. The OP print head has about 3000 ml fired through it. This occurred only after doing a firmware update.

Could be PIP in light cyan? Got that 25.3:10 error earlier in the week, not showing up now however.

Thanks Daniela, just got the 98:03 error. Potential print quality problem, check print heads.....

Hi @bhanke11039, For the 25.3:10 error, I suggest taking these actions: Remove the light cyan ink cartridge and reinstall it into the printer. Replace the light cyan ink cartridge. If it doesn't work, I suggest calling a service engineer to check the PIP connection or replace it.
