bad results using the Canon Pixma ip 8720

[JDH]

I have been using Canon printer for many years was the Canon Pro 10 printer, The results were very very close to what I saw on my monitor, However with the 8720 printer the results are very bad, in order to make a half decent print I have to adjust the image on my monitor to be very light and very red. The resulting print is ok but not  that good, I tried usin the Canon Easy photo print editor, the print was  a little better but stil not that good, I am using Canon paper but i  have used other brands with the same results. i have set the printer so that the printer decides color. Anyone have any ideas on how to get a decent print using this printer?

Thanks
