My Pixma Ip5000 Goes Through All The Stages Of Printing, But The Page Has Hardly Any Ink On It. The Cartridges Are All New. The Problem Has Been Getting Progressively Worse. It Started With Blank Streaks Across The Page But Just Cyan Ink Was Missing. Now The Whole Sheet Is 95% Blank. Is The Ink, Which Is Jettec?

Assuming the cartridge(s) have ink, sounds like the heads need cleaning.

Look in your manual and if the option is there, go through the head cleaning procedure.
 
If you use cheaper inks then you need to print of one coloured page every week to stop the jets getting clogged up.
