Canon I950

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

Folks

I have been experiencing great quality prints using the I950, canon inks and
canon papers. I have made no changes I can recall but all of a sudden I
have the printer spitting out perfect prints except for the colour range.
It seems to have taken on a purple pinkish tinge. Very slight but enough to
throw things. I have tried a reinstall of the drivers and the like but to
no avail. I am using Canon Easy Photoprint but have tried through other
printing programs. Still the same problem. I have deep cleaned etc but to
no avail. When I use the default settings as I used to, in the printer
settings ICM was turned off. Should I turn this on and would it make any
difference.

regards

Beezer how?

Install a basic srgb profile to the print drivers itsself and see if
that clears up.

Regards

Don
