imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX C5860i Gradient color problem on Canon Generic Plus PCL6

Hello, I have a project running where I have to print out office lists and for this I use a gradient in the background as a graphic background element. We have 2 models of the same printer, Image Runner Advance DX C5860i , one that is older and one that is newer. I have no problem printing the blue 100% to blue 0% (white) gradient on the old printer cleanly and in the correct color, but when I print the same file to the new printer, it adds a yellowish tone to the gradient that is not present in my document. I have tried everything from PDF settings to InDesign settings, but I only fail with the new printer and I would like to use the new printer as it prints text & photos much cleaner and more legible. I would be very happy to get an answer and help as soon as possible.CANON.jpgCANON2.jpg

Many thanks in advance

Greetings ,

It would be helpful if you could provide the model numbers for your devices please.

Canon Generic Plus PCL6 is a driver, not a printer model.

Thank you

Hello Sir, I'm sorry to have given you wrong information regarding my problem. If I'm not mistaken, it's an Image Runner Advance DX C5860i 

If it's still not the right information, let me know. I appreciate your help very much, thank you!

Thanks Danny!

@varez43.  Image Runners are supported by Canon's Dealer Network. I'm providing a link which you can review regarding gradation, tone and color adjustment.  However, I think that establishing a relationship with a servicing dealer will get your issue addressed with the best possible outcome.
