  If your Canon Printer is printing blurred images, producing incorrect colors, or not ejecting ink, here are some things to check: * Ensure the ink tanks are correctly seated in the print head; reseat them if needed and remove any remaining orange tape. * Verify the media type selected on the operation panel matches the paper loaded. * Print a nozzle check pattern to identify any missing colors. If the ink supply is uneven, perform a print head cleaning. If straight lines are misaligned, use the auto head align feature.
