New print quality issue

I have recently started having issues with random bands appearing on my prints. I have printed this model without issues many times before using the same Inland PLA filament.

Over the weekend I had several jams and lost several trays halfway through but this is the second successful print since then.

Using .2mm layer height with a new .4mm hot end assembly. I dry all filament before use and store in bags with desiccant to maintain low humidity levels.

I have attached a pic showing two different prints with the same filament and same settings with the lines appearing in different places. There are 2-3 prints out of the entire tray that don’t have these lines.

Any help in clearing this up would be appreciated.
