Title: Restoring Canon Printer,
Post by: Janis on February 16, 2023, 01:29:28 PM

I have a basic Canon Printer MG5720  Which no longer prints  neatly and correct.    I never know if the print will be less than requested  or blurred.   I uninstalled the printer and then reinstalled it with a new download.  This did not fix the problems.  From the reviews of current printers   I don't want to purchase a new one.  (HP would never be acceptable)   Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Did you try running the maintenance on the printer. This is especially important for an inkjet printer because the nozzles become clogged.

Ran it through twice but no improvement.
