Roland banding issues...again

Can anyone help us fix this problem? Picture is attached. The printer was printing great, until we had a fairly large size file to print - the printer kept stopping halfway through the print. I downloaded the newest update, the banner printed fine, but now we have these banding issues. We've done a manually cleaning, powerful cleaning, calibration test and nothing seems to help.

Thanks

that's either a print head, damper, or profile.

Try the same image on a different profile and see what happens.
If it's still acting up look into the dampers or a head.

Check your head hight and adjust the media feed calibration. Leave some slack at the back of the machine so the motor isn't pulling the full weight of the roll.
As for the printer pausing during large file printing, try getting a new network card. Only about 40$ and it has helped tremendously with that problem.
