    Both of my printheads have 1 of the 8 sections completely missing. 1 of 2 Magenta and 1 of the 8 white. The other sections look clean. I've tried system and manual head cleaning but neither worked bringing back the missing sections. Any idea what would cause a full test section to not work...

    what is this (in the nozzle check pattern)?

    Dear all, yesterday I have noticed a weak streak (in the GY channel) in the nozzle check pattern (2017.12.06). The regular cleaning procedure did not help. Three weeks ago (2017.11.15) there was a similar (but more pronounced) problem in the CO/MBK channel. That time the regular cleaning did not...

    A good scan of a Canon nozzle check using a CIS scanner

    In a couple of posts, here and here, I have claimed that the CIS scanner in a newer Canon printer like the MG5150 is no good for scanning Canon nozzle checks.
