JV33-130 test draw has some "M" in the "C" area

[MikeD]

JV33-130 test draw has some magenta in the cyan area. What does that indicate?


Can someone please direct me to a thread about this? I am pretty sure this issue has been addressed here, but I have not been able to find it.
Thanks,
Mike

How about a picture of the test draw?

I have a jpeg of it, but I am not sure how to post pics here...

replaced the cap head and so far everything looks good.

Might need a new pump, Dampers the usual suspects you know!

replaced the cap top and things look a little better, but still have some ink migration from magenta to where the cyan should print in the test draw.

...there were a few head scrapes prior to this issue. I don't see any damage under the print head though.

How can you judge the state of dampers by looking at them? Any tell-tale signs I should look for?
Thanks,
Mike
