PIXMA MG7520 Not Printing Well or Accurately

[Pixma2023]

Hi,

My Canon multifunction Pixma MG7520 is not printing well or accurately. I changed the ink cartridges a couple weeks a go, and the first document I tried to print- printed with dark bold lines through out the entire page like it was being redacted. I ran the “clean” function on the printer and it is still not printing well, please see images below.

Any advice or troubleshooting would be appriciated. Thank you.
