Bad Color prints - Refilling, Cleaning helpless.

Hi,

I had Canon Pixma MG3570 Printer which is multi-functional wireless printer.

For the first time the cartridge got empty. So i refilled the Black & Color cartridges upon emptying.

Since then, I have problem in printing color pages but only black photo copying works fine(not gray-scale prints which have random faded/deviated colors or stripes upon printing).

The sample test print (pattern & alignment check) are included as attachment.

I have emptied & completely cleaned color cartridge with water & dried & refilled. Even though same problem continues.

Please Help me in rectifying it.

And also i would like to know availability of:

1> Any reset software are for this printer (like MPTool or any other).

2> Dis-assembly & assembly manual or video.

3> Any other immediate maintenance required (like waste ink pad cleaning or ...)

Thanks in advance.

It looks like the print heads are partially jammed. Cleaning them should resolve your problem.

May i know the cleaning procedure for this cartridge (CL-741).

Do i need to cut & open this cartridge to clean( is it sufficient to clean with water or need any solution particularly).

Precautions, if any ... to keep in mind before doing this.
