Re i550 Canon Printer. I bought a new printhead (from the "big Satan!", costs 1/2 than "down under"). Installed, and prints perfectly ... black. Not a drop of other color. Discounting conspiracy theories, I cannot imagine that the printer itself is faulty on all 3 colors, but not black. Any...
Doug,
Thanks for the advice,
As I tried a number of cleaning techniques without resulting in even a trace of color being printed, I suspect rather an electronic fault. Problem is, is it a fault in the print head or in the printer itself? Also, the print head is over 100 USD here, down under!
I have a (major?) problem with my i550 Canon printer: It does not print any of the 3 colors, only the black prints ok.
The printer was idle for about 3 months.
I did a number of print head cleanings without any result.
Not a single trace of any colour appears on the nozzle check printouts...
