Yep, I wanted to show how far out the colours are.

Anyway, screen grabs attached of my printer settings, I have changed the quality from High to Standard which has had no affect on the colours, obviously.

I really am at a loss now.

All I've ever done is convert the image I have made to the correct colour profile and then printed using the above settings, I then save the image to include the colour profile so I don't have to convert each time I need to print. The only thing it can be is GIMP itself in that its not doing the conversion correctly maybe? I am on the latest version 2.10.34

To be honest, that colour variation looks so far out that I would suspect blocked nozzles, maybe from the yellow ink. Have you done a recent nozzle check?

Cant be that, if you read my original post, this is the 2nd printer its doing it on and its brand new.
Thanks anyway.

Yep, I've been through this so many times, all settings are correct.

Are your inks in date?

Brand new, came with the new printer.

Are you 100% sure gimp is actually saving the profile - I don't know gimp but can you open the image in another document and check that the profile has been saved and applied?

As per my original thread I have been printing these for years without having to make any changes. The profile has been saved with the image, but I've also re-made the image and gone through the whole process from scratch to check whether it was something in the image and it has made no difference at all.

I cant claim to be a GIMP expert but this points at a software related issue, just wish I knew what and where.

What inks came with the printer?

have you got access to a laptop you can run a test print through?
Your missing something in your settings somewhere.
for it to change and then be the same on a new printer too sounds like you have accidentally changed something.
