Canon Pixma G6020 vertical lines / residue(?) on prints

jamielk92 — Tue, 25 Jul 2023 17:36:02 GMT

My Canon pixma G6020 occasionally starts printing with these vertical lines. Usually if I fiddle with it enough it eventually stops. I believe it’s some kind of residue, but not positive.

Same paper, settings, files, everything I always use. Matte photo paper. I have tried every single maintenance cleaning setting more times than I can count and have tried removing and cleaning the print heads.

Any ideas please?

Hi,

You can try reseating the print heads using the steps in the link HERE to see if it resolves your issue. If there is air in the ink lines, it can cause gaps or banding in the prints. If reseating the print heads and cleaning have not resolved your issue, you can try the ink flush to see if it improves the print quality.
