I have just acquired a G3270 printer and the color printing behaves strangely, and I wonder if there was an explanation. When I print a jpeg on plain paper, the color is washed out. When I print the jpeg on plain paper with the paper type set on the printer to “glossy” on the printer, the color is better but still washed out. However, when I take the test jpeg and embed it in a MS Word page, the color looks great! What is going on?
I think something is going on with cymk under color removal, but I really don’t know.

I just purchased G3270 as well, and its doing the exact same thing out of the box. Further investigation findings after I read your notes:
However..
Attached Examples:
Since I can MAKE it print images properly through certain (non photo specific) apps- That leads me to think there is something wrong with the Canon driver when it detects that the thing being printed is a photo, and then skews the settings for some reason... Which is why its screwed up printing from a smartphone (canon app).
Anyone have a recommendations to fix this so it will just work everytime?

If printing with plain paper, you need to remove borderless printing from the driver/APP.
If you choose to print borderless on regular paper, the printing color will be washed out
