I do have the Canon printer driver installed and have been using the printer as default color management. Thanks
Try using Lightroom to manage color.

He did mention he used the profiles
Understood, but to use the profiles correctly requires soft proofing, which show you how the image will look with the current profile and color correction.

I use a Spyder Pro. I use the correct ICC profile. I’ve never soft proofed but will try that. In the Lightroom print module I have the printer manage color perhaps I should change that?
Absolutely enable soft proofing (the final step in a calibrated workflow) using that ICC profile and see if the screen image also shows a blueish color. If so, adjust to get it correct. Also, have LR manage color and turn off color management by the printer driver/windows. As stated above, if both are managing color, strange things can happen.

If you are selecting the profile in Lightroom you don't want to select it also in the driver. That is called double profiling. It frequently causes magenta tint but may be what is causing the blue tint.

As previously stated I’ve let the printer manage colors Not Lightroom.

The monitor image shows No blue tint! Just the print itself from the printer.

I know, but you’re getting a blue tint. I'm suggesting to try letting Lightroom manage color with settings I showed and see if that addresses the problem.

That’s in the soft proof view with the correct ICC profile enabled for soft proofing, correct?
And you disabled the Canon / windows printer management (if you have doubts how to do that, just ask) and have ONLY the LR printer management enabled, correct?
If both those things are true, the monitor is correctly calibrated and you’re using Canon ink, I have no other suggestions except to call Canon. Anyone else have an idea?

Hey y’all! Asking any Hogs who own this printer. I’ve had this printer about a month and it has a blue cast to all the print images! My monitor is calibrated. I use Canon paper and proper profiles. I print using Lightroom. I’ve run the head cleaning utility. I have to turn the blue slider in Lightroom All the way down and the printer will print an acceptable image. Any ideas? I have to print a sample image and adjust before I can print a 13X19 image. I’m running out of the Expensive ink!
Check Jtoolman on utube and Facebook. Look at precision colors for ink and the icc profiles to go with. Been using for years with excellent results. Jtoolman will have an answer.

Most warranty won't allow third party ink so you suck it up for a year. I tried to refill myself and was a mess. I used ink farm ink
