Exactly the same trouble, also red is polluted with black ink.
May be black ink cartridge not well sealed ? Printing black has low
quality now (even after full clean instruections)

I solved the problem by purchasing canon cartridges not remanufactured and the problem was solved.

Canon Customer support re this I can't see how this can be happening. It is possible the waste ink tank is full and bleeding all over. Check out www.fixyourownprinter.com
