Sorry Martin - I spoke too soon. I have now printed another page, and
that one did have the thin line of dots at the bottom. This
emphasises what I said in an earlier post, i.e. for me at least it
doesn't happen on every print, only on most. The colour of the line
of dots is essentially the colour of the last bit of the actual
print, albeit fainter (lower density of dots?).
Not sure if any more information will help.
Printer: Epson R800
Resolution: 1440x720
GP settings: All default except gamma at 1.6
Hardware: Iyonix (original tower) RISC OS 5.13, 512 MB RAM
Printing from Ovation Pro (v. 2.77) - mostly single page documents
consisting of two 6"x4" images, with crop marks, and small captions.
Where the images do have crop marks, the extraneous line of dots is
at the very bottom of the lower vertical crop marks at the bottom of
the page.
