My canon pixma mx922 only prints in green, yellow, and sometimes cyan. My theory is that the problem is caused by the ink not being made by canon (it is cheap ink), because te printer did this as soon as all but one ink type, black was not made by canon, the print doesn't print anything but green, yellow, and cyan, and confuses red for yellow. Does anyone know what to do?

I guess I would recommend replacing all inks with genuine Canon and run one or more deep cleaning until the test prints look right.

Well I already did the cleaning and deep cleaning, but I can try replacing the cartridges with canon brand ink.
BTW thanks

Hello - did replacing the ink to the original work?

I had the same problems, but was printing in mainly yellow. I had to do the nozzle check 2 times and selected B each time to do the required cleaning. After the second time, the colors were good.

I have an MG2522.
And I was printing green as well.
My red was clogged when I did that test.
But then I'm thinking why does this machine take the red, yellow and blue to make black
WHEN THERE IS ALREADY A BLACK INK CARTRIGE!!
I never print color.
I only print documents in this simple non wifi printer.
And I LOVE how this machine allows me to refill my cartridges with no penalty.
I love how I don't have to buy expensive cartriges.
Just refill and I'm good.
So when I refilled my color cartridge, I decided to do this.
I sucked all the ink out of it with my needle in my ink kit.
And I replcaed all theink to black.
Yes.
The yellow, blue and red is now black ink.
And now my printer is printing black again.
No fuss.
No drama.
Simple.
