[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1760223, member: 175845"] Thanks chscag, and I also contacted Canon Canada tech who confirmed that the printhead is probably defective for some unexplained reason as I had already done the normal cleaning and alignment stuff but I did it again just in case, and also removed and cleaned the printhead. Unfortunately no difference. :( It's also firmly seated and no sign of wobble. Neither does it explain why some lines print just fine, but others not. I've added to proper attachment below in case anyone wants to see what's happening. The US Canon forum site I'm going through also says the large dye ink should just work on its own when the settings are set to B&W/Greyscale and plain paper, but it's not working for my printer but I'll keep trying some other experiments. So far, I'm still getting this (below) unless I select to print to Photo paper and override the default setting that prevents the pigment ink from printing. - Patrick ====== [ATTACH=FULL]26595[/ATTACH] ======= [/QUOTE]
