The dots are almost completely gone now. I guess the smudge I get in one corner every time I print is a result of a lot of residue ink on the printhead. I haven't dared to take it out and clean it.
☺️, Yes it is. It's been with me for quite some time, have been very happy with it.
I'll just keep printing as usual, if they don't go away soon I'll try and change to new cartridges.
Thank you for your reply.
I never did manage to get the scanning function to work over LAN. I could do a scanning, if it's absolutely necessary.
The dots are there on the check pattern, but couldn't see anything on the printed photo. Have printed quite a few tests and they vary in intensity...

I've used aftermarket ink on my MP610 for years and years. I've bought from the same place now so I...
The splitting of the lines is barely visible on the picture, I checked a test I did after cleaning number one and the lines are ok. So I guess I should have asked here first and left it alone and not done a second clean.
I did a head alignment, could that screw up the grid like that?

I got this printer for free, the owner bought a new one after it clogged up. I bought demineralized water and cleaned the printhead as best as I could, I got all the ink out and the water was clear. The black 551 on the color tested showed some minor defects, I...
