ValueJet 1204 Streaking

Recently my printer started to print a streak in the same spot. I tried cleaning the heads, did a nozzle check etc...

Any suggestions. I attached a picture of the problem.

That is on scan direction or is on feed direction?? If it's on feed direction you must clean your linear encoder strip. If it's on scan direction you have to check out your dampers.

Hi. If you look at your printhead assembly, you may notice a piece of "fuzz" or something that needs to be cleaned off using a swab (with cleaning solution) or tweezers....careful as not to touch the actual printhead, just the plastic casing/metal part only. Hope this helps.
