I too have problems now and I didn't before.
Using txt and photographs on a simple newsletter I get banding which I 
never got before.
I always have it at 720x360 dpi, colour and high quality.
The output was always very, very good.
Now there is banding and it seems more options, which I never had 
before, so I don't know if these need to be selected. I also had to 
increase the gamma ( known issues with Epson and GPrint)
Thats why I posted this before to the mailing list to see if others 
had noticed a change in their set up ?
