Hello guys , colors are mixing up from magenta/yellow and Cyan/Black.Using Roland Inks. Im suspecting the pump but just to be sure before going forward. Have you ever encountered and solve this particular problem?
Colors are not sharp as before.

Thanks .
Alex

My experience tells me it's not the pump. I don't see how the pump would cause this. Most likely an air leak in the caps. First replace the caps. It can also be caused by one cartridge being near empty and the other being full (rarely, but it can happen.) A leaky damper as well. But I would start with the caps. You are doing proper manual cleaning of the heads and caps?
