Every 4th or 5th line does not print

Today, my four-year old Canon I850 stopped printing every fourth or fifth line of text  Paper tray is full.  Cartridges are full.  No settings have been changed.  Any suggestions.  Thanks.  Lindagolfer.

    I have the same problem, every 4th line does not print. I ran the recommended maintenance sequence (cleaning, deep cleaning, print head alignment, nozzle check), no luck! Any other ideas?

    I have the same problem. I did all of the maintenance and even reinstalled the drivers and still not printing every 4-5 line.

My canon i850 is blinking 3 orange lights at me and refusing to print. any ideas. tried turning on and off. removing print driver and re-installing thanks!

3 blinks is a line feed error, something stopping the platen roller from turning, look inside where the paper goes and see if something fell in like an ink pen, paper clip, just something that doesn't belong. The platen roller is the gray roller behind the carriage and sometimes you can see thru under the white plastic guides something jammed.

Faded text every few lines- Canon printer

When you print photos you print in Max dpi, for this no faded lines anywhere. Probably you have a problem only in black color in print head.
Мay be it's partially clogged or partially defective.

I have problems aligning printer heads on my Canon i850. I have clean the printer heads, replaced cartdridges, re-aligned them, but I still get lines through the printed material (phots mostly). No...

Please try to uninstall and reinstall your printer.

Clean your printer heads.

Perform a hard reset to your printer.

Print a test page.

Try using a different bond paper.

Make sure you are using original canon cartridge

If still you get an error. Replace your printer heads.

Colour printing comes out in lines across the whole page

Is the nozzle is perfect? i dont think so. But, if you print with best/photo mode is ok.

Size of page printed small

Check your default paper size on both the document program you are using and the printer. You could have it set for 5X7 and that's what it will figure for, even with 8 1/2X11 paper.

Printer will not print black ink

Chewbacca08's solution gave me an idea. I set the print setting to photos paper (even though I was trying to print on plain paper) and IT WORKED. It's worth a shot before you trash a perfectly good printer.
