Thank you SO much!! My printer is a huge part of my daily business and it has been leaving black streaks for months now, even after I run the cleaning and deep cleaning options. I just ordered the kit and I can't wait to get it back to it's full printing potential!

Thank you for sharing that is awesome!

Thank you, this is so helpful! I watched a lot of videos, and this is the clearest explanation by far. A tip for others, before doing the maintenance cleaning options, I always try printing a solid black page (or solid M or Y or C), and that way the ink runs through without filling the waste tank. If that doesn't work, I resort to the maintenance functions.

FANTASTIC!!! Now, I'll print a test page every day to ensure smooth ink flow. Note: AFTER FINISHING CLEANING, DO THE 'DEEP CLEANING' FIRST, THEN THE 'INK FLUSH'.

I have Canon Pixma 4400. The problem i have is the ink is not flowing through the tubes. When i so deep cleaning, the error 5200 shows up. Then after I restart the error disappears. Again while deep cleaning the error shows up again. Which means its not letting me to do the deep cleaning. What should i do ?

Thank you, worked great! One question though. Most likely I will have to do this again, so where does the ink and flushing solution go? Do I need to empty a reservoir somewhere?

Once you do the printhead cleaning in the system, it will fluch all the solution onto a waste pad in the printer.

@ThembelaniZwane

According to the video, yes. Remember that the liquid used for cleaning removes all the ink from the head/print heads. You need the ink back for you to be able to print. That is where ink flush comes in. I can add to say it is really needed as it will remove this liquid you used for cleaning. Think of this as rinsing your laundry. Can somebody help me with where to buy these heads?

I have a 4210. My question is when using a 3rd party ink, do you wait until the color is totally out? Flush it then put in new ink, or just bite the bullet and get the Canon refills?

That is possible yes, that's where you have to weigh the pros and cons of doing cleaning. If you're not able to print it all right now or not able to print certain color and the printer is useless and you might as well go this route many people do this and are able to print for a long period of time before the ink pads totally are filled up.

Hey, i hope you're still active on YT. I followed these steps to clean my print heads, however my black color is still having issues. I'm having to print with all colors because the black color prints with white vertical lines (faded lines) all across each print. Whenever i try to print in black only it comes out worse, it'd print for half the page with white lines then it would stop printing ink altogether. What do you think this would be? buy another solution bottle? (i used the whole bottle in one sit, used it mostly on the black).
