PIXMA TS6220 prints blurry text

[eco_poet]

I have a Canon Pixma TS6220 and it keeps printing blurry text.  However if I align the print heads and do a deep cleaning, I am able typically to get one clean print, but then it reverts to printing blurry text.  The color printing appears to be fine, however.  Does anyone have any ideas what might be the problem?  Is it likely the ink cartridge I am using? or does the print head need to be replaced?  Can anyone recommend an tech in Chicago who could service this for a reasonable price?
