Canon Imageclass MF642CDW printing with blue tint

Bought a Canon Imageclass MF642CDW about a year ago.  The last few months or so it's been printing images with a blue tint to them.

I've narrowed it down to the black tones in the images.  Did some test prints and standalone cyan, magenta and yellow look fine; standalone black has a SLIGHT blue tone, and anything gray just comes out blue.

As a graphic designer this is beyond frustrating, as the majority of images I print now have this blue hue to them.

 

I'm using Canon branded toner, no knockoffs or anything, and have already updated the firmware, restarted the printer, and removed and replaced cartridges multiple times.

 

Not sure what else to do, would love some input from the community here.

Hello,

If you have already tried updating firmware, restarting the printer and replacing cartridges then you can try one thing perform a calibration or color adjustment on your canon imageclass MF642CDW printer.   prepaidgiftbalance
