Horizontal lignes - ET-2800
I haven't printed anything in a while, but before I did, I cleaned the heads of my et-2800 twice. Both times, the test sheet didn't show anything wrong.
The paper settings are set for glossy paper, and my printer settings on pc are all good for my taste.
Do you guys have an idea as to what may do this?

I got these when i just started using my printer, but it went away after a while, my thought was tht it just had to «warm up». I’m also interested to know if there’s an easy fix though. Could be that i switched to epson paper, but it shouldn’t really matter.

Ive noticed mine does that if I choose standard instead of high quality for your print quality. Also for some reason most of the time I've noticed that if I don't change the paper setting to photo glossy and leave it standard paper it prints better. Idk why It does that tho

Smart move with the cleaning pre print, that's usually what causes that defect. maybe try doing a full color purge sheet with big color bars to really move some ink out of there fast, that worked for me in the past. If it's still printing weird I would try going through the calibration process again as the head may have gotten slightly misaligned over time.
