my 5 y.o. printer started printing banded recently.

on the test all colors reveled as picket fences with some major holes on the test sheet.
when I printed the "XP test page" all lines were banded, I was told to replace the print head.(bought new printer cheaper).

NOW MY OCD KICKS IN!!

I've corrected the banding on the XP test page but now it prints in red instead of black..when I printed in black only - banding returned.

any solutions?

thanks
