I am having trouble with my printer printing black lines across the bottom of the page whenever I print. I have tried to clean parts of the printer but to no avail. Is there a specific place to clean or do I need a new printer?? in black ink, first 5-10 lines are good & readable. then line quality varies for rest of page. have tried cleaning, and deep cleaning. clears up for a few pages, then back to good first few lines, then unreadible with horizontal lines and blanks. complained to ink supplier who said get a new printer. waiting for real canon inks to see if problem is cheap ink. rhn
You need to go in to your printer setting an change your status of printing
Yes wait for the canon ink to arrive and do the whole cleaning and aligning process again, if still no joy after that its the electronic inkjet controllers which have gone faulty meaning a new printer
hope this helps
kind regards
while you wait for the printers in use the printers own software to realign the cartridges and print a test page

Hello!!
Try printing 2 out of 3 pages in high quality and see wat happens!!
Remove the cartridges from the head and then remove the head where you
will be able to inspect it. Thoroughly clean the bottom of the head and
inspect the "parking sponge" for excess ink. Blot the sponge with
kitchen roll to remove the excess ink. Take a torch or powerful light
and inspect the bottom of the paper feed where the head runs backwards
and forwards, sometimes when using non standard paper etc the head
overshoots and deposits ink which accumulates and leaves streaks on the
paper mostly on the back.
Clean this area with a damp cloth and the rollers with some alcohol.
Reassemble and charge the head with ink, run a couple of bottom plate cleaner papers and examine for streaks.
