I'm having a weird issue with Brand-new Challanger FY 3286T 10 feet machine.
the problem is there is a banding issue when printing black colour
Printer is one week used and printer come-up with Seiko 508gs Print-head(4 Head)
it's only visible in 3pass mode and 2 pass mode slightly visible on 4 pass
Test print is all okay.
using photoprint 12 cloud edition and using default profiles

that would be awesome. there are other things that could cause your issues also. like the feed calibration, but that would effect all colors.

2 pass is pretty big and would cause banding so I would think that it's pretty normal. If you had banding at 8 or 12 pass, that would be more concerning.

this is happening after a week. that's the problem this didn't happen earlier...
banding issue is slightly visible on 3pass printing. but no issue with 4 - 8 pass and i think the reason is it's consume more ink and it's really hard to dry (printer has front heaters and fans)

Never had a printer that big but I've had printheads that were bad out of the box. Just because it's new doesn't mean it's working.
