Sounds like you're ready for the Pentax Lens fungus correction procedure (backyard, large sledge hammer ....) Won't cure your problem but will definitely make you feel better (for a while)

I read them and tried the suggested fixes. My thanks to all. This is what I did: 1) I used 3/4 of a ink cartridge running head cleaning cycles using the printer management utility Jens suggested. 2) Made several test prints. 3) I reinstalled the print drivers. 4) Made several more test prints. 5) Re-aligned the print heads. 6) More test prints. 7) At this point I got desperate & pulled the damn thing apart. Using a syringe some silicone tubing and a 50-50 solution of warm water & isopropyl alcohol, I flushed all the nozzles. 8) More [EMAIL PROTECTED] test prints After all that It's still playing up. The frustrating thing is that about 3 out of 10 prints come out fine. Arghhhhhh. Anyway I've come to the conclusion that it's tired & it's time to get a replacement. Again thanks for all your help.
