I appear to have the printer working and will be printing orders all evening. I printed all the matted print orders yesterday and hope to finish the canvas orders by midnight. They still all need to dry and either matted or sealed & stretched before sending out. Will just keep everything up with the same settings so hopefully nothing will get messed up.

Had me try a Watercolor driver with higher paper feed settings to print to the canvas but just got banding. He said he'd schedule a the second tech to come back out again to really, really, really replace the main board like they said 3 weeks ago instead of just running tests on matte paper (instead of canvas) and eating up another $250 in ink :| Well I got to thinking: if the first tech really fixed some things back to spec, and there is a a stray setting in there that is mucking things up, why don't I start from scratch and reset my printer driver settings back to zero and make everything match the printer settings exactly (even though the software driver should over-ride). Did a test print and came out ok, reprint an order and looks good! :D Ok on the phone with Epson upper-level tech off & on today.

He seems to think there is an incompatibility between Epson's 9900 printer HDR inks and Epson's matte canvas (which I use). We tried several rolls I have here in several sizes and they all had the problem. However those same rolls print wonderfully on the 4800 (K3 inks). I showed him some prints I had done which were fine (beautiful blacks printed by the 9900 on Epson's matte canvas). So he called Epson to have their high-level techs print on their own canvas. - Guess what ? they don't have any of their own canvas to test. Sounds odd , but I agreed to wait a couple more days to let them test this out. I just cannot believe Epson would not thoroughly test out a $6k printer on their only matte canvas. But whatever. I did look through some old canvas prints that had 'messed up' in the past and several had the same problem. So I guess it had cleared up, but now wont go away. Perhaps they changed the formula on the canvas or something... He recommended I try a different canvas, so I need to call Epson and see what canvas will work with the 9900 since theirs will not - after they test it of course. So what do I do with the stock of Epson canvas I've invested in then?? Good news is looks like the new print head the first tech put in fixed the problem with printing full resolution on the textured papers (not canvas). So, I can resume the matted print orders. Bad news still delayed on the canvases :| Will post as soon as I hear back from the Epson high-level techs - yeh, as soon as I get feed up waiting for them and call in asking for their supervisors again.
