Common MP520 printing issues and how the right ink helps

• Missing lines or streaks: run nozzle cleaning and make sure the cartridge is fresh and properly installed.
• Color looks weak: replace the specific depleted CLI-8 color rather than the whole set.
• Ink drying from infrequent use: print a small color page from time to time to keep ink flowing.
• Wrong cartridge error: verify the exact cartridge family (PGI-5 and CLI-8) and code before purchase.
