Canon MG7120 not printing PGBK *edit

*I took out the printhead and washed it through for 5 mins. GY now prints fine, but PGBK still will not print.

 

I got rid of the cartridge that it started with and replaced it. When I print the nozzle check pattern I get:

 

Blank space

C: fine

C: fine

C: fine

M: fine

M: fine

M: fine

Y: fine

BK: fine

GY: nothing

GY: nothing
GY: nothing

 

Then it asks which pattern the print most represents A or B - and I hit back because there is no pattern anywhere. Looking at sheets on google (which I can't find one that matches my same exact layout) there should be a pattern above all of this, but it's totally blank.

 

So it seems PGBK isn't printing, nor is GY. Like... nothing. I've cleaned it several times and done a deep cleaning and still nothing.

 

I'm not sure what's going on here.

Started having printer problems with MG7120. First I tried to print in standard mode instead of draft mode. Didn't work. Next I tried the noozle test twice and patterns printed ok. Next i checked to make sure the individual cartridges were in the right locations. I reloaded the print drivers and software from Canon support. After running software I noticed the print test worked okay. I tried to print an email with draft mode on. It printed only parts of it. I then turned off draft mode and it worked ok. This is a partial fix since draft mode doesn't work..
