So, I just printed out some ps stuff to use on my dvd covers.
Some of it are grey on my screen, but turns out green on paper.
What the heck?

I will post some profiles here to make it easier to understand.

So, where do I start? What needs to be fixed first? And no, I dont have any
hardware for calibration. :cry::cry:

Oh, yeah. The printer im using is the Canon Pixma IP8500.
Produced lovely outputs until a recent reinstall of xp.

You have print head problems. Go to printer maint. do a nozzle check and alignment. Head probably needs cleaning.
