Poorly printed and faint vertical lines

Hello
I have a Canon MG 5550 printer. For some time now, the printer has been printing poorly and not well on the vertical lines. I've tried everything in the maintenance section, cleaning the nozzles, alignment, etc. I even did a manual alignment that didn’t yield any results. In fact, during the manual alignment, some of the suggested letters were not printed. For example, under D or G, I believe. I forgot...
When printing a table, it seems like the vertical lines either don't print at all or only print every other time. Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue, please? I've used up a lot of ink, and I will have to buy more, but I don’t want to purchase more if I need to replace the printer. It would be a shame because everything else prints fine.
Thank you for your help.
