Has anyone experienced problems of this nature with the 2200? The green cast is evident in colour prints too. Very bizarre. I'm starting to think it's a hardware problem. Using latest 2200 drivers and monitor.
I gather that you are printing to the heavyweight matte paper. This is strange and my experience is this. I have used the heavyweight matte paper on the 1290 and the 1290 inks (which are different) and it is quick drying and the colour is pretty much correct as soon as the printer spits it out. When I use premium glossy, the shadow tones are noticeably green at first and I will normally allow the print to dry for several hours before making an evaluation. Is it at all possible that the print colours are being judged too soon - are you allowing the prints to fully dry first? I have also read of chemical contamination that can rapidly affect a print. Like the story of a photographer who left an inkjet print on a pillow and chemicals in the pillow turned the print yellow in a matter or hours! Was there anything unusual about the way the prints were being stored?
