I have a little Canon s330photo (winxp - usb) which I am more than
pleased
with, when it works. However, since a couple of months back it
occasionally goes a little scatterbrained. The black, and sometimes
the colour, will become lined or even kind of zig zagged. A great deal
of cleaning, replacing of cartridges is then done but it really does
seem to take forever to get it back on track and the ink monitor
usually hasn't mentioned any problems. Last time I spent hours doing
different stuff, removing the cartridges, making sure all was clean
and sparkling, and yet suddenly I was back to normal just as I was on
the point of giving up.

any ideas what's going on?

I would re-install the latest drivers.

That's fine. Just re-install to ensure no other software installations have
caused problems.

That's the first thing I do and it often fixes the problems.

and it's a good point. This system was murder for the first few weeks
after I got it, so anything could have happened
