Thus your print head is now clean. If you wish you print a test page and see if it is working fine. If so then you can resume with your normal print routine.

Method 3- manual cleaning

The first thing to do when you are manually cleaning the printer is to gather all the supplies that will need during the cleaning process. Such as isopropyl alcohol, water, bowl, and paper towels.

Now turn off the printer and unplug it. By doing this you will prevent the printer from getting damaged. This will also save you from getting hurt while removing the cartridge from the printer.

Now open the main casing of your printer and remove the cartridge one at a time. If you wish you can either look through the printer manual or contact Canon Printer Customer Support. But if your cartridge has print heads then you can avoid this step.

Now make a 50/50 solution mixture from isopropyl alcohol and water. For this, you can take about half a cup of the alcohol and half a cup of the water and mix it properly. Now you have to  pour the combination into a bowl.

Now place the print head in the alcohol and water mixture. Make sure that the print head is completely immersed in the mixture. But if the cartridges you are using have a built-in print head then place the cartridge into the mixture.

Now leave the print head into the mixture for about two minutes. By keeping it immersed into the mixture will help the dried ink that is clogging the print head to loosen up.

Once the ink has loosened up now you can remove the print head from the mixture and dab it on the paper towel. Doing so will remove the moisture and ink from the print head surface. Make sure to completely dry the print head before using it or proceeding any further.

Once you placed the printer head and the cartridge back to its original place you can now print a test page to check if the problem is solved. and your printer should be working fine by now.
