With my Pixma, I remove the print head and run hot water through it until it runs clear. Then blot with kitchen towel and do it again until almost no ink comes through and the towel is clean.
First, are you running low on those ink colors? If not, possibly print cartridges need cleaning. If printer has separate print heads, they made need cleaning. Lastly, print head(s) may need replacement.
Could have ruined the head from not proper cooling from the ink supply.
Try to clean the head using 8 oz. hot water (preferably distilled) and 1 oz. ammonia.
Make sure the intake ports are submerged for 30=45 minutes. Dry the head completely and re-install.
Gently tap the PGI5 BLK on a towel and make sure ink comes out.
If so do a deep clean and a head alignment page.
If nopt you may need a print head that I can supply.
Thank you fo0r using Fixya
bad cartridges or you set it not to remind you of ink running low
If so maybe try to remove the head and let it cap.
Unplug it for 30 minutes and re-install head etc.
I have a canon MX 394 printer and after refilling the ink cartridges, I tried to reset the low ink warning as described here but the low ink message does not disappear and the problem persists. Any additional help regarding this.??
Thx JN
Try putting a bit of isopropyl alcohol in the bottom of the cartridge holder where the ink goes through and letting it sit for a couple hours then putting the cartridges back in and running the cleaning cycle a few times.
The alcohol should help dissolve the dried ink in the print head.
