    I'm a SAHM (Stay At Home Mom) and I've done it solo, so you may have just divined it from me :lol

    Funnily enough, given the wording of your reply, it's "know what I mean". What was the other one? It's one of the skills from the three teens I can share😋. I must have read the one year warranty on another product's page, because you're right, it's not this one's! I've messaged them. They do...

    This just occurred to me, though. Wouldn't OEM Canon Printheads come from China as well? 🤔

    I doubt it's bravery. More likely it's sheer reckless stupidity as a result of being at the tail end of raising 3 teenagers. This risk seems like the safest decision I've made in months 😂😭 I don't know if I could get it from Canon directly, I'm basing the delivery estimate on my past experience...

    Just in case this doesn't solve the problem, or it blows again quickly and replacing the printer itself becomes inevitable, I'd really appreciate your insight. The features I've found hard to replace in one printer are the double tray so I can have letter paper and photo paper loaded...

    It was $140, which is still less than half than replacing the printer, so I'm more than happy with that. I've tried upgrading it before, but I guess it's like a favorite chair, every other one I've looked at or purchased has been lacking in some way or another. So if this fixes the problem, then...

    It's from the Canon store on Amazon, so I feel good about the warranty (I've had an incredibly good and extensive track record with Amazon customer service (may have been influenced by my lawyer speak, but still)). The OEM from Canon would take too long to arrive.

    I currently use high quality as my default, should I change that as well? Thank you! The new OEM print head arrives Sunday for half the price of a new printer, along with brand ink (that's gonna hurt!)

    Well, an answer, even a bad one, is still better than being in constant uncertainty about whether or not it's salvageable. It's a relief. I'm going to price just replacing the print head. Is there anything I should look out for?

    I'm removing the printhead right now and will update. A random aside is that I use off-brand ink if that could possibly make a difference.

    The first is using my manual settings, the second is the auto printout and the third is using those auto settings.

    It's not your eyes, that's exactly the problem. It varies throughout the pages. I took them with a small tripod, so shake isn't an issue. On line three it can look like complete double vision and by line six be perfect and then transition to a smudgy appearance for a few lines. It has been...

    INSIGHT will be helpful! This is my 3rd Pixma 922 (I'm a fan), but it's the first time I've ever hit this road block! I've tried everything! Cleaned it every way I've found described in the support section, online and Google, aligned it and cleaned the timing strip for over 3 hours and I get...

    Hello from the Midwest!

    A very relieved hello from Kansas! I'm Misty, a former litigator turned sahm to 3 children, although they're now 15, 18 and 20😁. I've always been in charge of the technology, but have never had the time to venture far beyond the basics. Now that I have that time, I'm finding it harder to resolve...
