PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II Color Output is Off

I have an older Pixma Pro9000 Mark ii printer and am still able to print but the color output is off. Wondering if anyone has input on which colors to adjust to make it correct?

It really isn't possible to accurately diagnose a printer issue until it is established that the nozzle check is correct.

Run a nozzle check and cleaning is necessary till a proper nozzle check is obtained. Then see how the print looks.
