Getting black spots along left side of photo prints/Pixma MG7120

[hamsolo19]

Hello. I have a Canon Pixma MG7120 printer and lately when printing photos (and some docutments) I'm getting a string of black speckles/spots along the left side of the prints. Any way I can go about fixing this? Thanks.

Please also try performing a bottom plate cleaning on the printer by following the steps shown here, and cleaning the protrusions inside of the printer by following the steps shown here.
