Jens, Looking at the blue strikes, even on the white area, it doesn't look like a clogged print head, but one that is spraying blue ink where it shouldn't. That also would be consistent with the correct nozzle chack pattern and no improvement after head cleaning. Why is this? Is it coming from the print head, or is there some blue ink in the printer mechanism contaminating the prints? Do you use ink from third party?
