Question

Prints are very warm toned

Suddenly all prints from Photoshop print as if there is a warming filter applied. Prints I have created in the past print fine with the same settings.Anything new I create has this warm tone. 

I have ruled out the printer (Canon Pixma Pro100) through testing.

I am using photoshop V22.2 but had the same problem wit V23.3.

Everything in my process is the same: Paper, ink, Profiles, print settings.

Frustrated in Reno!!!

The bottom photo is how it appears on screen or printed from Preview , top is photoshop manages color, or printed from photoshop with any print settings!

@yenensis although, in this case, the result seems to be in your favour - printing from Preview isn't very reliable, sadly, Photoshop is more likely to be accurate - if your previously printed filers now p[riont differently perhaps the printer has a partially blocked nozzle? 

 

Maybe look into that then try a test using this - as the image contains "memory colours" it should reveal inaccuracy visually.:- 

please go here and download the Adobe RGB testimage: https://www.colourmanagement.net/index.php/downloads_listing/

 

for a more stringent test we use this - Have you ever wondered how to KNOW whether your screen [or printer] is ACCURATE and not just 'pleasing'?
If so please check this out: http://www.colourmanagement.net/products/icc-profile-verification-kit

 

I hope this helps

Neil,
Thanks for the info, I have run many tests on the printer and clean cycles,
I can print from my older Imac and have no issues. I upgraded my macOS
system and have installed the newest version of Bridge and Photoshop only
to have the same issue. It seems as if some setting has changed in my
computer but no one seems to be able to figure it out. Have spoken to
support at Canon (printer), Adobe, and Apple. Don't even know where to turn
from here!

@yenensis Hi Louie, are you using Photoshop Manages Color - and the correct ICC output device profile?

Is the print driver set to not apply colour management?

Are you selecting the same media setting (print settings) used by whomever made the ICC device profile?

There are a few places to trip up here, unfortunately. 

 

Are you seeing manufacturer's actual paper (media) names underprint settings "media setting" or just glossy/ matte etc? If the latter, you may be using Airprint which calls upon a driver that’s not the original Canon one.

 

I hope this helps
