I've been banging my head against the wall trying to produce good prints. All my prints exhibit a greeny/blue cast with fully manifests itself several hours after printing. it seems as if the print fades a little too from printer to dry. What im left with is prints that look as if theyve been left out in the sun. I'm using photo paper pro on the right setting. Any ideas very gratefully received. :roll:

I have the i9900 printer which is identical to the i9950 except for the CD printing capability of the i9950. I also print on PhotoPaper Pro and I haven't experienced any color mismatch problems with any of my prints yet. And more specifically, I've never noticed the color changing on my prints while going from "wet" to "dry". I'm wondering if, maybe, you have either a defective batch of paper or some bad ink tanks. I'm inclined to think this probably is not a color management problem if you can actually see the print color changing in front of you as it is drying, under the same lighting conditions.

Perhaps check if you have all the ink cartridges in the right slots. My i9950 printed perfectly right out of the box without anything set other than the paper type. PPP does need an hour for the colors to look right and best 24 hours to fully set and dry.
Otherwise you probably have some setting wrong in the software you are printing from or in the i9950 printer dialog. Probably something simple.

I might also note that if you have VIVID checked in the i9950 printer dialog, it will boost greens and blues in you print.
