PIXMA G3260 - photos are yellow-ish

vilas01 — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 13:42:12 GMT

I just got a Canon G3260 and am underwhelmed by the photos I have printed so far. I've tried a few different types of pictures and each one seems kind of yellow-ish - especially where they should be white, they have more of a yellow tint. I'm printing on glossy photo paper using the Canon Easy Print Photo Editor app. Is that part of my problem? Are there some setup steps I need to take on the printer? (I did print out the alignment page and scanned it by pressing the Color button)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I think the G3260 has a pretty good reputation for good photo prints so I suspect there are things I should be doing or doing differently.

Same with me, if the settings for paper is like glossy photo paper , the print result is yellowish and that printer was bought 2016, and it is still working. the DPI is good for photo print but the color tint is slightly yellow-ish

I've been using the printner for almost 9 years and the printer model is Canon Pixma iP2770. I tried modifying the printer color settings, but still for that 9 years no update and no fix for the yellowish color for photo print. No fix till this day. Not recommended for Printing professional photo, but compare to EPSON canon has good details for DPI, the disadvantage is that it is yellowish. But for printing for Plain Paper mode, there is no yellowish, but the detail for DPI is not as high compared to Photo Paper Mode.
