Please help: My Canon Pro Graf 1000 printer lost the plot this morning. It jammed; I cleared that and moved the head along as advised when switched off to check if anything was left. It ran smoothly along. I turned it back on and tried a plain sheet of paper the same size. Jammed and torn. Repeated the process. Tried an A4 sheet on plain paper and it printed but left a n erratic column of vertical black streaks. I decided to clean the rollers. As instructed put 3 sheets in and it took them in and ripped them and they all remained inside. I removed them without making contact with my hands to the cables but black ink on base around the centre …. The head docked. I tried Fotospeed who said they would call after 2pm. I had no call.

Does anybody have any experience of this? I have almost a full set of inks left having put one in during this process.

Help! I need to get some stuff done…
 
Came out in 2015 , Could be time for a new printer.
 
Permajet sell Canon printers, they run printing workshops, may be worth a quick call if you use their products?
 
I would try bottom plate cleaning from the maintenance menu then another roller clean too.

I use Fotospeed and I am hoping for a call in the next couple of hours. Thanks for the idea.

I will see what the Fotospeed guys say when I hear from them later today. I will bear your suggestion in mind. Thanks.

I had similar experience with the black streaks, but cleaning the roller by inserting 3 sheets didn’t help at all. So, I cleaned it manually very carefully with a soft cloth, then it worked perfectly fine. However, I need to do it more often, especially after printing 10-20 copies
