PIXMA PRO-200 Colours flat and dull

[barneyoschnoodl]

Hi, I have a canon pro 200 which I have had for nearly two years now and as of yet not really had a good print.

the prints are sharp but the problem is the colours, they are flat and dull, no matter what I do.

I use adobe for all my editing and printing. can someone help and maybe advise why they are so dull.

I only use canon inks and I use ilford gallery satin photo paper

thank you in advance

1. Have you run a nozzle check to ensure all inks are printing properly?

2. Have you printed a standardized test image?

Thank you for your help. I will try the nozzle test and a standardised picture. It is certainly worth a try
