If our plotter hasn't printed in awhile (first print in the day or maybe after a few hours of idle time), the first sheet that prints has blurred bands perpendicular to the paper output direction at 10" on center (see image below). The second sheet prints fine. Do any of you have an idea for what the cause of this would be? Also do you know if the parts for this plotter will become hard to find because it has been discontinued or does the new Plotwave series use the same components (drums, toner, etc)? Thanks.
