Pixma g6020 incorrect color

My printer seemed to be working fine, then started printing in magenta only. My husband started printing documents in greyscale and that worked for black.

Im trying to print in color. Cleaned nozzles several times. Deep cleaned 3 times. Magenta, yellow & black look ok on nozzle check. Blue is splotchy- Different each time I print a nozzle check.

 Other things to try?

Greetings,

If a cleaning and deep cleaning didn't work, consider performing an ink flush:

Thanks. I’ll try it.

Thank you. It used 1/3 of the color ink cartridges, but the nozzles check finally came out good.
