Canon MP970 prints blank pages. How can I FIX that problem?

Some times when you get a new cart. a fine film can be blocking the
exit hole,check that this is clear by shaking the cart. up and down
over a large piece of paper ,if you do not get any ink out ,take a small
pin and gently insert it into the exit hole and move it around in a circle,
don't go to deep,then try shaking it again..? Another idea is to replace
all the carts.(colour ones also) as some printers wont work unless you
do this, after changing carts. disconect your printer from mains supply
and leave for about 15 minuets to reset..Hope this works for you
good luck. T.C.

Canon pixma iP8500 won't print, blank pages

The colour cartridge is badly clog. put tissue with warm/hot water below the head, wait for about 30 minutes. If tissue is coloured, the dried ink inside head is out. Is it not, do suction from the outlet pipe of head cleaning mechanics.

Epson stylus c66 is new but in printing paper comes out blank

Normal 0 Normal 0 Driver could be corrupt.
Disconnect the printer or at least be sure it is turned off. I'd do both and reinstall the CD software program that came with the printer. When the software program asks you to connect the printer to the USB port, do so and it should again work properly.
Hope this helps. Bud

Not printing properly

Hello,

I guess that the ink level is not responding correctly. Please remove the cartridge and then clean the nozzle. or in the printer properties you can clean it automatically by command using the mouse.

If the ink replacement are original then maybe something defect in your new ink. try replace it with other ink cartridges.

After cleaning seat it back and then test. else if this not resolve then try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver of your printer.

Please tell me whatsoever the result.

may this help, -melnavz
