I have the exact same issue with my IP4000. Although photograps, printed with Canon easy Photo-print software, do print red. Its Illustrator, indesign, Photoshop, Word etc that prints either brown or orange....
I think it is a setting you need to do, but which??
Granddad35, thanks for your help! I am new to this CMYK/RGB stuff so I am not really sure about this.
I do have access to Photoshop and tried printing an RGB image (red square) as well as a CMYK converted one, both come out brown instead of red.
Im pretty sure its not a problem with the printer...
I have a canon pixma ip4000 BJ printer and photo printing is no problem.
But when I want to print CMYK documents from indesign or illustrator the colors dont come out right.
It is impossible to print red, this comes out as brown. Apparently I need to get the right printer profile for printing...
