I ran into an issue with my GT541 today that I have never seen before, and hope someone can help me with. I've attached a photo of the test print, which shows the issue with the black. When I ran an initial test print on it this morning, it looked a bit blurry on the left line of the test print, and has been getting worse the more I try to fix it. At first I thought it was some sort of alignment issue, but now I have no idea what might be going on. I did a complete cap/wiper/head cleaning, as well as normal and powerful cleanings and it hasn't helped.
I was in the process of trying to squeeze out a few extra shirts out of a black cartridge when it happened, and was using the toothpaste roll up trick inside the cartridge to get the job done as I don't have a backup cart on hand. I've done this with just about every cart I've ever used and never run into any issues but wanted to mention that in case it could be a factor.
Any help would be appreciated... Thank youuuu.
