Hello

Printer model : Canon PIXMA G2410

Every time when I print, on the first sheet always the black color is not clear, then starting from the second sheet it prints normally.. Sometimes starting from the lower half of a sheet the black returns to normal.
This only happens with black, the other colors are fine , any help please !

Run a deep head clean for all colours. Try printing in greyscale only and see results, then print in colour so it uses the small black cartridge, thats if you have a four cartridge printer from within the printer properties section and see if the first page prints correctly both times.

In the printer properties advanced tab, there should be a tick box to 'Enable Advanced Printing Features'. Just untick that box, then apply and ok buttons. Then try a print test again. Had wietd things go on before with this setting ticked. Turn printer on and off if it has not changed after applying.
Let me know how it goes.
