Pixma MG5320 Printing with streaks

Gretchen313 — Sun, 08 Dec 2019 21:49:55 GMT

My printer has started printing incompletely. It seems to mainly be the black ink. I have tried cleaning the printer heads, deep cleaning the printer heads, aligning the print heads, and exchanging the cartridge but nothing seems to be improving my print quality. I have attadched an example.Any thoughts or ideas?

Greetings,

Your image is indicative of a clogged print head. I know you said you had performed several cleanings, but the issue persists.

Try this next, and let us know if it helps.

Thank you for your suggestion. I reseated the printer head, as suggested, and did another deep clean but the problem persists. When I printed the nozzle check pattern, the only color that has issues is the one in the PGBK slot. Any other thoughts or ideas?
