How To Resolve Blurred Printing Lines?

My Canon pixma inkjet MG2120 printer had been working fine until today, when I mistakenly hit the reset button to clear a paper jam. I then turned off the printer, then turned it back on, and the jammed paper came out by itself. But all my subsequent printing has been blurred since then. Do I need to realign the print head, and if so, how? Did my hitting the reset button cause this problem of the printing being blurred?
