    My error edifyguy, the lines were only horizontal. as for your reply, thank you so much for your efforts.



    i am looking at several photos I printed and quite frankly i can not tell the difference, the lines appears to be consistent regardless of the colors used. it is the same with all photos and the lines match the color that is intended to be in that particular location, however there is a line that is dark followed by a lighter line, so on and so forth for any and every color being printed.







    the line calibration I did more describes the look I am seeing on the paper.

    Also, do you know where I can get parts? one of the little wheel with the spring that feeds the paper into the double side printing to the rear of my printer. This inhibits my ability to do double side printing as it will not catch.



    let me know and thanks for your help

    jagged edges on plots, calibration of roll feed page advance on the 110. put in new print heads, machine does several print alighment prints prior to working.

Sounds like one or more of your printheads is worn out. They are designed to be user replaceable, and wear out after a certain amount of usage.

Black is obvious, but if the lines are purplish, your yellow head is bad. If they're greenish, your magenta head is bad. If they're reddish, your cyan head is bad.

Vertical lines are very unusual. Can you scan a printout and post it somewhere that we can look at it?
