If a new print head is needed this is a good place to buy from:
http://www.precisionroller.com/find/canon_i865_print_head.htm
They have good service and decent prices. I have bought various items
from them and been more than satisfied.

because for a little more than double the price you can move up 3 or 4
generations of technology in Canon printer line,

Here is what you get.

1. 4 Generations of technology
2. a warranty
3. a full set of Canon ink carts with the new advanced ink formulation
4. a print duplexer
5. twin paper input trays
