Greetings
MP 510 burning the blue out of the print head. I was using InkTec ink after I had to reset all cartridges, that refill the blue burnt out. I got a new print head installed didn't last, before the cartridges were empty burnt the blue again. Then I got a new print head and new blue cartridge after it was empty install this time with Image Specialties ink and the blue burnt again. I got another new head and a new blue cartridge the head then lasted until I had to hold the reset button on that blue as it was the only new cartridge. during the next refill the blue burnt again. These heads are no good I have washed extensively under the tape flushed with windex they all print the same funny pattern in the blue. So I back flushed all the cartridges check there flow at least one drip per second with water. I got a new mp 510 machine install these cartridges and after I got all four reset I got about 50 pages blue burnt the same way the same pattern. I checked the cartridge for flow yes when the screw is taken out the ink drips out at about one drop per second. So I have four burnt heads and three different blue cartridges and two machines. Do I smell a rat is Canon shutting us down!
Any help or ideas would be helpful.
To sum up the heads I have Soaked overnight in water, flushed under the tape, flushed and soaked with windex, soaked in ammonia and water.
The cartridges I have back flushed, and check that ink flows through. They print good when first installed.
Tried InkTec and Image Specialties Ink.
