Our printer has started printing stripes of lighter text. From the nozzle check print below it looks like some of the vertical lines are split into two parallel lines along the horizontal stripe where the solid region is lighter. I've run the cleaning, deep cleaning, and print head alignment. Is there anything else I can try to fix it?

I had to call support and they said the problem was a warped print head. I purchased it but it did not come with directions for changing out the print head. Are they available online anywhere?

Hi samohtsirhc.
Canon U.S.A. does not have publicly-available directions for replacing the print head in the G4200.
