iP8720 on OS 12.6 Drastic Magenta cast

I am trying to print through apple pages and all my photos come out heavily Magenta. I have printed a test page and all nozzles seem to be printing fine. Have checked ICC profiles and they seem to be correct as well.

Have read a lot about double color correction causing Magenta cast but can not figure out how to tell if this is my problem.

Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Are you printing a PDF with images or are you printing actual photo files (JPEGs)?

I have tried both. The images were inserted into "pages" as .heic  but I also tried printing to a .pdf first and then sending that to the printer through "Preview".

In addition, I tried printing through apple "ColorSync" app and have also tried printing the photos directly from "photos".

I have also tried printing with color matching settings set to both "ColorSync-Automatic" and "Canon Color Matching".

In all cases I get a very strong Magenta cast.

Maybe start back at ground zero? Go into Printers & Scanners and reset print system. Then download latest driver and install. Add the printer.
