modifying the settings (see How do I... Create a new media type), and then calibrate the printer. See
Calibrate the printer. Banding may be present in the form of white lines (as in the image above), or in
the form of darker lines.

If you still see banding in all colors after performing the calibrations, then try adjusting the heater
temperature and/or print mode settings. See How do I.... Adjust heater and print mode settings.

Manage media types

You can create new media types, or you can modify or delete existing media types by using the MEDIA
REG
menu.

Hint We recommend that you do not modify the preset media types that came with your
printer. You can copy a preset media type with characteristics that are similar to the new
media that you want to use, and use the copy to create a new one before changing the
settings. This means that you will have to make changes to only one or two parameters and
you will not need to set new values for all of the parameters.

For a complete list of the options available in the MEDIA REG menu, see Tell me about... The MEDIA
REG menu.
