558342 2007-06-11 23:30:00 Have a colour rendition problem with my Canon BJC-8200 inkjet.It has six individual inktanks and nozzles.Suspect one of the nozzles is (partially?) blocked.
How do I do some printing using only a specified individual colour?The test programs provided do not let me do this.

558344 2007-06-12 03:21:00 My old BJC-6000 had a couple of head cleaning options, so I'm sure the 8200 will...

Try head cleaning (using the software) then try a test print.

BTW, never turn your printer off at the wall, always power it down via the software, or the heads will stop where they are, instead of returning to the side where the ink will not dry out...
