* : Using full variable drop (Small, Middle and large drops of each drop family), the output is banding free up to 18.8 m²/h. When printing faster, artefacts like banding may start occurring. This is caused by the ballistic behaviour of the smallest drops and considered normal behaviour. In these circumstances, Mutoh recommends to generate profiles using only Middle and large drops or, to limit the small drops around 30% density.
