G4510 Canon printer printing blank pages

I have an iMac set up with a G4510 Canon printer. I am working on Mac OS Mojave Version 10.14.6.


I printed off it 2 days ago in black and white and it printed fine.

Today it is feeding through the paper but the pages are white.


I assume it is because the heads need cleaning but I don't know how to do this.

Does anyone have any idea how to do this?

Thank you

iMac 27″, macOS 10.14

Here's the nozzle test:

Here is a similar issue on another Canon inkjet

It is AirPrint capable printer, which means direct printing from any Apple device without needing vendor drivers:

I'd suggest asking this question again, over in the Canon printer forums at the Canon website. Here is the Canon desktop inkjet forum:

The Canon inkjet printer website and printer documentation is... underwhelming.
