Hello ,
i have stripes/lines on my digital negative: the show up in the final print, you can see the density differences.
One can read the stripes best on the backside of the negative(photo no1) the bands are 1-1,5 cm wide, soft edge and not completely regular , but spread over the whole negative…they run parallel to the printhead
On the emulsion-side they are hard to distinguish. (photo no)2… In the carbon print they show up…
what could be the cause?

This looks like ink starvation of some sort. I’ve seen this crop up on 9900s but never n x800s before. Try setting a custom paper in the printer’s panel and setting the head delay to 5 seconds per pass.

Hello Walker,
September 25 I made a print, with a longer head delay of 5 seconds, as you suggested…First all seemed right, now it seems to me that after several days the lines , described above, slowly appear…
Any idea what could be the cause?
After several day of drying? or several days of making more negatives . . .
best,
Walker
after several days of drying…6 days now. After the first neg i printed 2 more, they also have the lines.
1-3 days after the printing everything seems ok, but now after 6 days i can see the lines, as in attachment 1…
the slowly appear…
