I need some help!
I have an i9900, being used with Red River Paper and MIS Inks (www.inksupply.com). The combination is usually top notch and I typically never have any problems.
I'm printing from Adobe Illustrator CS4, and the colors are WAY off. From what I can tell, the ink tanks are fine. If I turn on the option to print color bars under Marks and Bleed, those bars look dead on. However, a 60% K gray is printing more of a maroon brown than a shade of gray. What's going on?
I've set Illustrator to manage color, set it to the profile for the Red River Paper I am using, and disabled ICM in the printer driver. No luck.
I've done several ink cleaning cycles and printed nozzle test patterns and everything looks good. I don't get it!
I tried a lab test print from Photoshop CS4, and the same thing happens... all black/gray shades are printing brownish.
I filled up a new Photo Black ink tank with a new blank cartridge and I get the same results. Its a relatively new/full bottle of ink too.
Any ideas??
Can anyone point me to some test prints that have exact color values for getting solid shades of the 8 colors in this printer?
