Cannot detect alignment page- two possibilities-
1: hen the printer prints the alignment you can physically see the lines and colour shades being printed onto the sheet- this should then be scanned with the electronic eye built onto the carriage assembly- usually one automatic operation- if you can see a good clear image printed ( blocks/lines.boxes) and the printer cannot see the image it stands to reason the electronic eve ( spectrophotometer) is not reading the image correctly or at all, if however there are 'missing' areas of the calibration print then the problem lies with the printing side and I would recommend cleaning/ replacing the printheads as required

Allignment failed

Defects to align the cartridges tend to happen when the scanner can not detect the page. Check the scanner and see if it is working properly.

Every other picture comes out with blue streak across the top

A manufacturers default of printing an allignment sheet after the jobs been completed. The reasons are to indicate to the user ink conditions that is available when any print after all is observed on the complementary printed page. The functionality of the print allignment page could be disabled by manipulating the printer menu functions. the process may require removing and installing the ink cartriges for the option of allignment to be manipulated.

I changed the black ink cartridge as per instructions and the printer printed an alignment paper which i then placed in the printer for alignment but the alignment failed

the page should be absolutely new.and the scanner glass should be absolutely cleaned.and 1 main thing u replaced your black cartridge.but if your colour cartridge is empty it will not accept the allignment complete thing.it will show allignment failed as the particular colour is missing in your allignment sheet which is required to get the allignment complete.

After putting a new black and white ink cartridge into the printer, it keeps printing the alighnment sheet everytime I turn the printer on. Ugh! What a waste of ink.

actually it is given in that allign page printout that how to stop this.
but listen the procedure.
after the allignment page is printed just place that allignment page in the scanner .the readable side of the page on the glass.then press OK/ENTER what button present in your printer.
the allignment will start.the printer will read the page.and allignment will get completed.then after u ON the printer it will not give you such problem till u replace the cartridges.
