JV33 print discoloration

[kevint2005]

I've recently encountered this problem only at the very start of anything that I print involving the color blue. After the first few centimeters it clears up and prints perfectly though. Any ideas on what could be causing this for me? As soon as it started this last week i ordered a maintenance kit for my printer which includes new pump, dampers, cap top and wiper that should all come in today. Hopefully one of those items are my problem and not the print head.
Anyone else had a similar issue as this by chance?

It's cross contamination. Your maintenance parts are probably just failing. The kit should do the trick. In some rare cases the head is damaged internally but it's usually a bad pump/damper/cap.
