Canon printer problem


I have a Canon S830D bubble jet printer which gives me excellent prints, but is suddenly giving problems. If I do a print check; Cyan doesn't print at all and the yellow grid is smeared.

Does anyone have an idea, or is this a job for Canon services?

Thanks for any response!

  Take out the Cyan ink cartridge and reinsert it. Then go to the maintenance screen and select 'deep cleaning'. Do the deep cleaning a couple of times (yes, it uses ink) and see if there is any improvement. Hope this helps.

  Andy is right, it sounds like a plugged jet.
