Heres the long and the short of it. Have an All in One Lexmark Prospect 205.
A while ago it stopped printing in blue properly and the rest of colours including black are pretty poor... white lines through them all. Anyway... What I Know Is...
Blue cartridge is 1/2 full as are the others approx
If I pull the cartridge out and touch the pad on the bottom, it comes away with a perfect blue circle. I BELIEVE the cartridge is ok.
I have removed the print head and cleaned it with a non-alcoholic based cleaner. (Glasses cleaner to be exact.)
Deep clean has no effect
Print has the four colour blacks at the bottom, Black, Yellow, Cyan(problem colour) and Magenta
Prior to cleaning the print head, there was a few faint blue streaks in the blue square. After the print head clean there is more.
Anyone got any ideas?
