Around half a year ago my MP600's printhead started to die.
At the moment the noozle check pattern looked this way:
A few weeks ago before it died completely it looked this way:
Then the printer started to show "The type of printhead is incorrect install the correct print head" message.
So I bought a replacement Canon QY6-0061 printhead and installed it. The error message disappeared, but the unit still doesn't print properly.
Here are a couple of noozle check patterns I get now:
And that's what I get if I try to make a copy of that old pattern image:
Both of those copies printed in the color copy mode - I have no idea why it prints them in random color, not to mention the stripes. If I try to make it B/W I just get blank sheets.
I tried the cleaning and deep cleaning and they didn't help. I also tried the print head alignment and it says "an error occured during automatic print head alignment". And if I try to make a manual one it just prints me a blank sheet.
Any ideas?
