ricoh 3110 vertical lines when printing?

[liannef]

Hi
I seem to have vertical lines appearing on my prints, which i'm thinking is to do with the magenta cart as it's not on all colours. It was fine one day and then the next lines are appearing. The cart was low so I put a new one in and have done a few head cleans and a head flush and no change. The nozzle check is perfect across all 4 colours though. any ideas? am I suppose to be cleaning inside at all as it's difficult to see anything as it's all hidden or covered up.
Thanks
Lianne

thanks for the suggestion but it's not a single line, they are every few mm, so i'm thinking the head, but the nozzle check is fine. It's not printing a nice solid colour like it does for others and it can be seen when pressed. I get some black lines / splodges of ink sometimes which are frustrating. Only seems to happen when i do mugs and I can barely see it until after i've pressed but doing a head clean before i print usually sorts it out.
