Printer is printing photos with an orange hue over the entire page.

Hello,

So my printer is a canon Pixma MP495 and like I said in the subject it prints an orange hue over photos but not over the white space in between photos(if I have multiple laid out on a page). This happens even for black and white photos. The beginning of the printing is normal for half inch then it slowly becomes orange over the following inch of printing. Here is some additional info.

 

-canon brand ink (cl-211xl, pg-210xl)

-Any brand of paper. Currently using kodak Ultra Premium Photo Paper

-photos come from phone emailed to computer then assemble in Adobe Photoshop

-same thing happens when printing on normal paper

-sample picture from other forum prints in orange as well as with blue horizontal lines every .25"

Hi MrHiggans,

 

I would like to have you print a nozzle check pattern from the printer to see if the inkjet nozzles are dispensing the ink correctly.  To do this, please follow the steps located at the link below:

 

Printing a Nozzle Check Pattern from PIXMA MP495

 

Did the nozzle check pattern print correctly?
