Default Epson LX-300+ Matrix Printer

printer quality gives a line inbetween the words, cutting though every
printed line, even if the ribbon is new. i have tried cleaning the head
with spirit but the problems persists

Check printhead for pin stuck, ribbon cable damaged or problem with
printhead driver circuitry.
I would think that a printer of this age will have a stuck pin in the
printhead.
