I've made sure that the ink is in the well in the unit and also in the tube that runs from the CSIS unit to the printer. I've worked on it all day long and I still am only able to print 3 colors. I'm very frustrated and wasting a lot of ink by constantly doing head cleaning too

the problem might be the ink, change the cartridge maybe the ink dried out....

Don't use nozzles clean function, besides ink consuming it can cause damages that cannot be fixed: black lines on the back side of the page that will be permanent. Instead put two photo paper together (2x260 gr) and push the two papers together into the printer while printing a motive including many colors. Do so a couple of times and the clogg usually disappears. Good luck! jonk
SOURCE: Not printing magenta ink and tried cleaning heads already
Hi, one or two head cleans won't clear a clogged nozzle. Try doing 4 or 5 head cleans, wait about 10 hours for the ink to soften and do another 3 or 4 cleans with a nozzle check after each. You should see a gradual improvement in the nozzle checks. If there is no improvement then you need a head cleaning solution such as this one:

Others are available just try googling "inkjet head cleaning".
Note that head cleaning uses between 5 and ten percent of your ink cart's, if any are low on ink have some new ones ready. Hope this helps.
Please take a moment to rate this solution, thanks.

Nothing at all? Problem with micropiezo (micro pump) at head. But you said, replaced print head. So it might just lost electricity to head (problem with board).

The sponge under the chasse is full of ink and when I do print the bottom of the page has black spots on it. The magenta has ink in both wells and I have also put the outside unit on top of a box to give it more height for the tubes to flow through. Still not printing magenta. I really need suggestions as to what I need to do. PLEASE someone HELP me!
couldn't get 2 pages to print.. it would only grab one page so I tried to put a heavier weight paper through..still not printing one of the colors.
