What I built is, make a page with squares that are all YELLOW or all MAGENTA or all CYAN then print. Whatever does not print is the color of the ink you are in need of working on - add ink or clean the head or whatever.
Now I may be wrong, but if I print CYAN should I get just that color of ink, since that is one of the three ink colors?
I am not getting that single color as I expected!
Do you see what I have done wrong? Please help solve this mystery.
I'm not a graphics expert, but what the heck, here goes.
I take it to mean that you have written a script or coded a program to make a test page.
Ideally, it would seem that the 3 colors should access the ink tanks individually.
Perhaps somehow the color value you have assigned to CYAN does not agree with the value the printer expects to see for that color.
So it is trying to make a variant to match the value it is given.
If you have access to a paint program you might try to make a similar test page using the program's color picker set to CYMK mode. Or CYM if such a setting exists.
