I simply cannot understand it. My first cart (CL-41) lost it's ability to print light yellow, I got two more carts, and now they also lost the ability to print light yellow. When I print a test pattern, I get 6 colors (a light and dark version of each color) plus black. Each color is preceded by a box that goes from black (for dark version) to 'light' black (for the light version of each color)... when my light yellow goes, this 'light' black box turns slightly blue.
What I cannot understand and pisses me off entirely is why this is happening, and why only on light yellow? For 3 carts? And I switched to a different ink after the 1st cart gave way, but still it is happening? I keep a log of each refill and how much ink I plug in per color per refill, and my log shows that yellow only needs about 2-3 cc per refill while cyan and magenta go from 3-5 cc per refill --- so that means I'm not running out of ink, so that shouldn't damage the printhead.
Why is this happening to me? And why just the light yellow color?
