I have a Canon Pixma G3020 that I bought and have been using for about a year. It worked perfectly until last week.
The problem: I noticed horizontal lines that are either white or less saturated. The distance between the lines vary based on the print quality (shorter/closer with high quality print and longer/further with economy).
Solutions I tried:
- Cleaning
- Deep cleaning
- Head alignment
- Black Ink Flush
- All other cleaning options
I tried the cleaning and deep cleaning options multiple times over the span of 3 days. Then tried any option that had cleaning in it as well as the alignment. The problem was not solved. So I tried the Black Ink Flush option, since the problem was more visible in grayscale printing. Yet the problem still the same.
I do not unplug the printer. 3 to 4 days prior to this issue I printed a few grayscale pictures on standard quality with no issues at all.
I attached some of the A4 test pages I printed that shows the issue (standard quality print).
Any help is much appreciated.
