Severe Smudging with MX922

[thebestcpu]

John, I appreciate the video links, both are very good. However, after following the steps in the second video and using Piezo Flush, I still get the exact same nozzle check pattern. When I say exact, that is exactly what I see, nothing is changed. I never got around to trying a different printhead, I was spending way too much time with this.

Regarding patience, I've always thought of myself as having tons of patience, but this time the printer won. It was used in my teaching studio almost exclusively for making black and white copies, I gave up and just ordered a Canon Imageclass printer/scanner. Goodbye to ink cartridges and hello to what I hope will be much less trouble prone toner cartridges.

Now on to fixing the stubborn yellow ink clog in my Epson P400.

Thanks!

You're welcome @Charles218

I get to the same point more quickly these days as I said in my first post

Yet today, I want to get back to printing, so I lean towards spending more money for a solution.

I'm glad you went for a bulletproof solution.
