PIXMA G3270 Printing the background to what should be a blank page. Image greys over time

[CRead]

I just got the Pixma megatank G3270, it arrived on Wednesday and today is Friday. I tried printing a page with standard settings and it came our very sad and dull, was told different page settings may assist with vibrancy and decided to do a multiple pass page set up to find out which setting works best. Even with each print being only a small portion of the page, it sounded like it was printing the entire page line by line. After about 8 or so passes that looks to be exactly what happened. But even when printing a page with standard settings there is still fuzzy/grainy-ness in the background where the pages should be blank/white. Unsure what to do since it is a brand new printer. Please see photos for what I mean, the color wheel page next to a standard unprinted on page shows how it greys, and the CMYK page shows the graininess next to a standard unprinted page as well.

Additionally, I am printing from an iPad, tried JPEG vs PNG, as well as procreate vs photo and there is no difference. Color Wheel Paper Type - Vibrancy CalibrationCMYK Calibration
