Hahnemuhle papers and calibration

I've been pulling my hair out. I have Spyder screen and print calibration - I've gone through all the steps dozens of times.

I've printed targets, I've read targets, I've used every Media Setting in combinations.

 

I can get almost spot on color with color photos.

The Heavy Weight Fine Art settings (based on a target made that way) is a bit washed out.

The Matte Photo Paper is over saturated, or tinted on way or the other. 

I make adjustments to the profile, and I can get by.

 

Then I go to print a grayscale image using these profiles and instead of a neutral image I get pink or magenta.

 

All this is through Canon Print Studio Pro working withing Photoshop 2019.

 

I'm about to give up and build a darkroom.

 

Any similar experiences, or hints?

I use Moab or Canson and have no troubles like you mention. I always print with the correct ICC profile and it seems to work.

I need the time to get in touch with Canon - they don’t do weekends ... seems the real problem is that my printhead is dying.
