Canon Pixma MP540 not printing

[Mattis]

I have a Canon Pixma MP540 that apparently only prints if I use the "Print as Image" function in Adobe Acrobat—and even then, many colors are missing. My test print is an all black printlabel for a package. It comes out in almost see through orange and black.

If I try to print in adobe acrobat without "Print as image" the print comes out over and over again being 2 small boxes (almost looking like 2 QR-codes without being QR-codes).

The cartridges are brand new. I've run a deep cleaning cycle, and internal prints works just fine. I'm on a Mac and have downloaded drivers. I’ve also tried printing a TextEdit file or through Preview - without any luck (nothing comes out).
