HP Recommended
Product: HP OfficeJet Pro 6978 All-in-One Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just put in all new ink cartridges in my HP 6978 printer after two times  of running the head clean process.  I had just  put in new cartridges the last weekend because of blue stripes.  After the cleaning and new cartridges being installed I'm still getting blue stripes on printing photos.  I've only printed 3 full page scenic photos and the printer tells me I need to have a replacement cartridge ready.  At $49 for a 3 pack of  ink this is not what I need.  After reading that HP has had problems with the blue ink having streaks recently, I'm considering buying other brand ink.  Please help me.
