After 2 or 3 pages printing there are streaks especially in Magenta and a little in Cyan.

Printing a self test diagnostic page I get  a message under Printhead status / refilled supply:

Detected in printer?

Magenta no/cyan yes.

all other colors in "detected in printhead" and "detected in printer" show yes. 

I always can print a couple of pages ok and then the 3rd or 4th page start streaking. After less then a minute of pause I can again print a couple of pages.

Any idea what may be wrong?
