Printer MG6600 - Printing color broken lines

Hello Friends,

Hope you all are doing great !!
My every fully functinoing Canon MG6600 has recently started to give problems in printing, since i bought it 4 years ago.

All of a sudden, since a month, it has started to print broken color lines instead of texts. 

 

And also, when i ask the printer to print in black/greyscale, it prints broken lines in color.

I did all the testing that print has in its options i.e., Cleaning, Deep cleaning, Print head alignment, nozzle check etc.

But when i even try printing the test paper, it doesn't not print graphics or text, but only print broken color lines.

 

Please let me know what else can i do to resolve this. The ink catriges have more than 25% ink (75% was wasted in testing out all sorts of testing).

 

Appreciate your help in advance.

 

Thanks,

Pavan Kumar

Hi sppavankumar,

 

Please follow these steps:

 

1.  Swipe the HOME screen of your printer and then tap the wrench and screwdriver icon.

 

2.  Select Maintenance.

 

3.  Select Print nozzle check pattern.

 

4.  Select Yes.

 

Please compare your printout to the example below.  Does your nozzle check match the example?

Hello Patrick,

Thanks for your response !!

I did try the procedure that you had suggested and I ended up getting the attached Printer.JPG

 

Does this mean the printer is out of shape ?

 

Thanks,

Hi sppavankumar,

 

Because you have performed printhead cleanings and the nozzle check still does not print correctly, your PIXMA MG6220 would require service.  You are eligible for Canon's Upgrade Program. This is for out of warranty units which have been diagnosed to require service, or for some reason are incompatible with a new or upgraded system. This option allows you a one-time opportunity to purchase a replacement product, discounted from the list price.

To help you get up and running quickly, we also offer free standard shipping (if the order is completed by 12:30PM ET). If you would like to take part in this option, please call our Sales Department at (866) 443-8002 weekdays starting at 9am (ET). Let them know you have been working with technical support and the Canon Upgrade Program was offered.
