So, encountered a problem with my printer. It doesn't printer out clear. Visible staggered prints.

 

Checked the black ink was low so I replaced with a new one. Still the same issue. I did all the clean programmes found in the printer, print multiple quality reports and alignment pages but still the same thing. 

 

Attached are a few photos.
