I have a Canon 4300 BJC-Printer, which presented the following
problem: It prints text/graphics with white stripes.
The ink tanks are full (brand new), and the cartridge is not clogged
(I even tried the Photo cartridge, and an old one BC-21, all with the
same problem).
Analytically: The "nozzle check pattern", is faulty on all cartridges,
and appears to be interrupted every 4 blocks, on all colours
simultaneously (black & CMY).
---Nozzle Check Pattern---
24 "4 blocks", "3 |", "4 blocks", "3 |", 24 "4 blocks", "3 |", "4
blocks", "3 |"
X3 (YMC)
64 "4x3 blocks", "3 |", "4x3 blocks", "3 |", 24 "4 blocks", "3 |", "4
blocks", "3 |"
(Black)
--------------------------
The strange thing is that the horizontal lines are present for 4
blocks, and then desapear from all the inks (CMYK) at the same time
for another 4 blocks, this repeated 2 times resulting in 2 white
stripes for each head pass.
Any help/suggestions is appreciated.
