Our 7410 had a huge amount of black ink leaked underneath the cartridges. It had started printing blurry. We cleaned it out, and after cleaning it now prints blurry every other line with black ink, but red, blue etc print clear. Why??
Hi,
Is it the ink cartridge contacts you already cleaned? If so, then you can also clean it using the tools menu from the printer panel:
-press setup menu, then go to tools
-select clean print cartridge and press ok
-it will print a test page. If the printout is good, you can try printing again.
I hope this helps.

it looks like the red and black are slightly off alignment
Prints blurry (ghosting) text on only half the page. Smears to the right.. ghosting area is not consistent on each page printed. Does not ghost if I print with black ink cartridge only. Ghosting started all of a sudden, didn't just change ink cartridge, but I have since it started to see if it would do the trick.. I have realigned cartridges since, and cleaned the clear plastic strip (encoder strip i think) any suggestions?
cleaned print heads - it printed six colored boxes on a paper - no black. Told it to calibrate & it printed some lines of different shades of blue and some red/orange arrow & "important" at bottom of sheet - still no black. Will not print a letter, although it acts like it's printing, but no ink.
