Hi all,
I registered on this board looking for the help, hopefully someone would have an idea what is going on with my printer. I have Canon Pixma MP560 printer. I was using OEM cartridges for several months together with Sudhaus inks, and I was refilling them with the top method and closing the hole with the tape, which often led to the leakage of ink inside printer. Finally I made a "smart decision" and I bought a set of refillable cartridges.
They used to work fine for couple of refilling, but now I have a weird problem that I can't solve even after reading many articles on this forum. When I am printing text on the plain paper, my text looks kind of italic in number of lines, there are also many empty lines (like the nozzle is clogged). But, this happens only if I am using standard print quality - if I choose print quality to be high, my printouts are just perfect!!!
Also, printing on photos is not really the best thing out there - I am using original Canon paper and there are tiny tiny parallel lines on every photo, approximately at the same place.
I will try to attach the scans of both text and photo if the forum allows me.
What i tried - washing the print head in Windex (Lidl version), cleaning nozzles many many times (including deep cleaning), but no luck. I read here on the forum that only OEM cartridges should be used, but before cashing out 60 EUR for new set of cartridges, I would like to hear some opinions... For the text I could live with the slow high quality printing, but I also need to print photos from time to time...
