A couple years ago I made some computer generated gradients designed
specifically to show banding problems on printers or monitors. Those of you
exploring this issue may find them useful. I designed them so that bands,
if present, would always be "S" curves, not straight lines, and the
gradients all have 256 levels. There is one RGB pattern and one CMYK
pattern. They may be found at

They have no embedded profiles, so I suggest opening the RGB file in
Photoshop 6 using "Assign working RGB."
