Canon MX850
Originally started showing lines while printing black text. Tested all cleaning cycles multiple times - initially this helped. Thereafter removed head and cleaned. I tried several different cartridges, but to no difference. Not a cartridge problem. Printed well for a short period, and but lines returned soon after. This cycle continued until now black text PGI-5 no longer prints at all, even after long soaking / cleaning. I presumed print head, so ordered a new print head. Behold when it arrives, still same problem - NOT print head problem!
Nozzle test fine for colours, but now not printing any PGI-5 pattern at the top.
Anyone know what the problem is and how to fix ?
Also, does anyone have a service manual for this printer that I can get a copy of please ??
Thanks for your help.....
