Hi,
I'm using Canon i320 printer.
On the last couple of weeks the printer printed in color only. Small strips of black appeared ocasionaly only.
Replaced the ink cartridge with an OEM one, but no luck.
Tried several cleaning techniques but still no good.
Had some alchohol on a tissue and pressed the printhead over it. Saw the alcohol coming out from top. Tried to blow air through it (With my mouth) and again it came out... Still, no black printing at all.
Soaked the printhead in alcohol for few days, and now all I get is an error message "No printhead installed" :(

Any idea ? Advice ?
