I just got done cleaning the print head and adding all new cartridges and when printing a color test page, the magenta, cyan, yellow and black are perfect all the way across. If I print a page that has other random colors and gradients, it looks like a tie-die teeshirt. If I print the same page again, it looks almost identical and if I print the same image from my phone, rather than my desktop computer, it still looks like the colors get blended. Attached/below is a sample of what the page looks like from my printer. Also, a sample from a screen shot of what the page should look like. And then a sample of the printer printing a test page with just MCYB colors.
I did a factory reset on the printer to make sure things were back to default.
I don't see any place to do a color calibration on this 6960 Printer, so it might need to go in the trash, but maybe someone can help with a suggestion about why it can print each individual color perfectly, but can't blend colors any longer.
Thanks
Here is the result from printing the multi color test page:

Here is the result of a print test page with basic colors from my printer. Everything aligns perfectly.
