Waves and or light stripes in the paper
feed direction
Bands can consist of waves and / or slight
color differences of approximately 1cm.
Check if the correct media is defined on
the system.
If yes, select a different media type.
When the printer applies a lot of ink the
paper can cockle. Use premium papers or
coated papers because they have a better
resistance towards waving (also called
cockle). If the problem persists, the use
of heavier media will reduce cockle.
The following papers will never show
cockle.

'High qual. coated paper 120-170g'
