Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I have attached a photo of the nozzle check page. I have also pasted the print log for a 4x6 glossy print that had a blue cast below this message.
The blue cast is still there on plain paper prints, but it might be less severe. I have attached two plain paper prints:
-a side-by-side comparison of the color target photo printed on plain paper with the BJC8500 driver versus the Turboprint driver. The Turboprint image appears to have a blue cast, but perhaps less severe than with photo paper.
-a side-by-side comparison of a digital photo and the same image printed on plain paper with Turboprint.
Thanks again,
Chris Gregerson
