Is your head hight right? Seems like your Bi-dir adjustment is wrong.

Print head is set low.. I'll make the adjustments in the morning an see how that goes.

What printer do you have? There should be a bi-directional alignment test/adjustment on the printer. The other long shot possibility is the black head temp could be too low and it’s slow to fire.(used to run into that on a NUR printer)

This does look like a media gap (bi-directional) adjustment is needed. You can test that theory by printing in Uni-Direction. If the problem goes away, then you are on the right track. One thing - you may need to do a Detail Adjustment, which checks the calibration for all colors, not just black.

ok so the results after some adjustments on the bi-directional it shows up better than it was yesterday.
but still need tweaking cause you can still notice it on them small prints.
Anything big you wont notice but i'll like to have it sharp so i can do small prints.
Gonna do a head soak tomorrow an see how better it gets.
