Pixma TR150 is streaking

[jovo]

Hi - my Pixma TR150, when printing text, has a bunch of white lines through the text, making it illegible.  I went through all of the troubleshooting steps in the manual, but they had no effect.  The printer is not yet 2 years old.  Does anybody have any advise of what else I can do?

Hi,

After the cleanings, did you print a nozzle check? If the same issue appears on the grid or print in the nozzle check then the printer would require service. 

Since the printer is out of it's 1 year warranty, you would qualify for the Canon Upgrade program. This is for out of warranty units which have been diagnosed to require service or are incompatible with a new or upgraded system. This program allows you the opportunity to purchase a replacement product discounted from the list price. Free ground shipping is included with your purchase.

Hi - Yes, I did the nozzle check, there is no obvious issue when I do any of the automated checks.  Only when I print text. In that case, would the Canon upgrade program be useful for me? If so, how much would it cost, and can I sign up online, rather than making a phone call?

I would also like to know.  Mine started streaking, I did everything possible even bought a new print head and to no avail can I get it to print black.  Not impressed.  My machine was purchased June of 2021.
