This is a known issue.

Could you show us a small sample of this effect? I can confirm a
slight line distance problem when looked at high magnification, but
it's also visable at 8 bit per color. It may be a hardware problem...

That's the problem, the optical resolution is only 1200 dpi in X
direction.

This is just marketing.

It's a backend issue. The backend must double the x resolution in the
1200/2400 dpi mode. Or better yet, interpolate the missing pixels.
As a work aound, you can use gimp or similar programs to double the
number of pixels in x direction.
