I think you are just about to hit the nail on the head. No 'printer
expert' here, but, considering that 'brightness' comes from less ink-
on-white-paper, I was thinking that too much ink is being put on the
paper. That makes it the two of us thinking that.
But how have you printed a "density ramp"?

Is it an ink density problem, in other words is the DJ90 laying

Have you tried printing density ramps to see how much ink is
required for the printer/paper
combo ? You say the colour is too colour saturated, which could
mean too much ink.

that are too dark and too
saturated with color. If I can learn how to further increase the
'brightness', I'm sure the
color will back off a little and exactly match the monitor just as
my Canon i9900 prints
match the monitor. The subjects that I'm printing are that of
people and flowers. I
appreciate any help you all can give me.
