Cannon Mg5320 Will Not Print Any Black Ink
Decorating By craftycakes0627 Updated 15 Apr 2015 , 12:31pm by KsCakes09
Hi! and HELP!!!! My Cannon MG5320 won't print any black ink. It prints all the other colors just fine but no black. I have replaced the ink cartridges and cleaned the print head using hot water to steam out everything as suggested previously by KopyCake.
Still no black ink. When I take the print head out, I can see that both black in wells on the head are pooled with ink. Its like the ink can;t get into the print head. I ran a print head alignment and a nozzle check. Nozzle check shows no clogged nozzles.
Has anyone experienced this before and if so were you able to get it to work again and how?
Thanks!

I have the same problem but I have a Canon mp620. I don't use my printer that often so I assumed it was just clogged up. I did all the things you did and nothing changed...i finally tried soaking the print head with a paper towel soaked with airbrush cleaner for a whole day (found suggestion online) fold up a paper towel a few times put in small bowl and soak it with cleaner, put print head on top of paper towel a put a little pressure and you should see some color come back through the wells. Let it sit for a few hours and repeat. And finally I could see some black ink coming through on the paper towel. Hope that helps.
