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?

Now I'm finding that the Canon Pro-1000 won't take files from PS. It will only go through Print Studio.

I happened to find another post of yours Niel where you were having similar trouble printig from PS. 

I'm going to uninstall the printer, reload the driver, and try again. 

 

What an expensive machine to get on-line!

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.
