    Pro 10s banding. This only happens in muddy mid-tones, bright mixed areas are fine. I have tried head re-alignmen.

    I had a banding issue on my PRO-300, also in the mid-tones only, and also had a perfect nozzle check. If you haven't tried it, you could reset all the settings to defaults and see if that solves it. In my case it was a paper abrasion setting on the printer that was the culprit.

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    The Canon rep was very helpful but couldn't fix it after all. I did solve my issue last evening on my own, I did a full reset of the printer's settings and paper settings and printed a test image with the defaults, everything was perfect without any banding. This is the first step I should've...

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    The Canon rep I talked to is as confused as I am and doesn't understand how a perfect nozzle check can come out of my printer and have banding issue. I am supposed to receive a call from them after work to troubleshoot the settings I use. I'll update this thread with the results.

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    Okay, here's what I've tried since last post: - Bypassed Lightroom and the Canon software and printed directly, no change. - Rotated the picture to landscape to see if the banding stayed horizontal, and it did so that rules out the picture for being the problem. - Bought a USB cable to make...

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    I am sad to report this has not helped my problem at all, I corrected my settings and it still has the same banding issue on my pictures.

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    I looked into double profiling and fell upon this article: https://www.redrivercatalog.com/profiles/how-to-use-icc-color-printer-profiles-lightroom-canon-desktop-windows.html It seems I am not following these exact steps, and may in fact be making a mistake in the settings. I will check this...

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    That last part very much relieves me, I was worried something was wrong with the printer. I'll try to see if I can manage to figure the settings out. My difficulty is that the printing software repeats many of the settings in the driver and I have no idea what takes priority over what.

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    Just to be sure I understand correctly, when you say Media settings do you mean the ICC profile and all that? I use the printing software Canon provides (Professional Print & Layout) and I also tried printing directly from Lightroom. I always change the paper type in the software to match what's...

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    I hadn't thought of that, I always use the highest setting possible. I've printed on the standard setting just now and I feel it's worse. Way more noticeable.

    Slight banding on glossy/luster paper only

    Hi, I recently received a brand new Canon PRO-300 a few weeks ago. I did the initial setup following the manual very carefully and everything was fine. I printed a number of photos and everything seemed fine. Until I tried this one picture of my cat with a dark gradient area and noticed some...
