Hey all,
I posted a while back when I received this printer, about how it had some quirks and a somewhat unusual history. But right now the problem I'm encountering has me a bit baffled.
The printer seems to print the 1st 1/4" or so properly, then the Light Cyan goes completely missing from the print for around 1/2", then once it returns the print shows a complete lack of shadows, like photo black is missing or such.
Nozzle checks also show a complete absence of Light Cyan nozzles in the middle-half of the test print, and if I print over that nozzle check print the photos are missing Light Cyan in the exact same region, 1/4" to 3/4" through the print.
Of course that's not the whole problem, the everything beyond 1/4" is also completely devoid of shadows, and exhibits horizontal banding, largely with density and not so much with color.
I've attached images to better understand what I'm talking about... The Cyan channel cleared on a later nozzle check after additional cleaning, but I didn't have that test print on-hand to scan. Every other color has cleaned fine, but the LC has shown this consistently. Note that the prints are missing the same color in the same region.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan O.
