Kodak 1200i Color bands

[Stainless Rat]

I am getting a magenta and cyan burn bar in the middle of my prints. I have cleaned the reader strip extensively and have performed all the tests with no problems arising. In all actuality, the printers tests have never looked better (color db tests and the like).
I changed out a couple of burned up connection strips between the cartridge/heads and the carriage, but this has not fixed the problem. Is this a driver problem? Profile? Ground?

Please help if you can.

Thanks

Hi, Stainless Rat -

Does seem like some kind of electrical or mechanical issue. Suggest you might want to contact Kodak technical support at (877) 362-2387. They can help to diagnose the probem and suggest potential fix(es).
