If banding cannot be cleared using the settings described above, select the HQ1 mode in
RIP print settings. Stripe banding and tint unevenness will less likely to occur.
If the banding cannot be cleared completely with HQ1 mode, then select HQ2 mode in RIP
print settings. However, graininess might be more obvious than printing with HQ1 mode.
The print speed of HQ1/HQ2 mode becomes lower than other print modes that use the
same number of passes.
Following are examples of the RIP print setting mode. Display of setting mode will be
different depending on the software RIP.
