PIXMA PRO-100 Lines in Prints, Blacks Turn Out Greenish

Kaksosn

I recently purchased a pixma pro 2nd hand. Things were fine originally, but I've started to have colour issues, and I can't figure out what. Specifically, I'm having lines appear on the prints, and my blacks turn out greenish? I've posted some examples below.

I also ran a test print page and it's having trouble with the cmyk row where the darkest blacks are appearing purple, brown and green.

I've run a nozzle check and things came out fine. I'm relatively new to all this so any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Run head cleaning and maybe deep cleaning until you get a proper nozzle check print.

Which model printer? Can you run a nozzle check and post a photo of what it look like?

Apologies, should've mentioned earlier that it's a pro 100

Upon running another test, my black and grey comes out blank (do ignore the magenta strips at the top, I printed over it by mistake)

Run head cleaning and maybe deep cleaning until you get a proper nozzle check print.

Thank you for all your responses, I'll give it a try

100%, looking at that image, some channel isn't firing correctly. I would print a nozzle check and post it here.
