I am soaking my print head per the initial suggestion offered by the Hat using Dreft and Windex prescribed by him in an earlier thread here. I started today. I plan to soak overnight then change the Dreft solution and re-soak with it and Windex for another day. I will clean It thoroughly in...
I am posting a print showing the color stripes that are showing on my prints. I am printing on Canon pro Luster Lu101 paper usingPrint the portrait mode on letter size paper. I am using the new Precision color dye inks that I just changed over to, However this problem was also noted prior to...
That's fine. I am on travel and will get home late on Sat. I will scan a photo that hopefully will show my problem. I hope someone will be able to post a solution. Are you also having the same issue with your printer?

Hi Hat

Thanks for the reply Stratman,
As I said I am a new to the world of printing and just got my printer. You mentioned that I should not use the OEM yellow cart. I'm afraid that your advice came too late as I had already installed all the carts and did some printing. I hope that is not too bad a...
