Re: Canon prints pink after SP1

Thanks Dwarf. I tried that this morning and did manage to get a couple of documents printed and for a moment thought the problem was solved. However tried to print a photograph and it came out bright pink.
As I said I've tried to reinstall Canon drivers and they won't install. Also tried altering the colour on screen by reducing the colour temperature until the picture is very blue but it still prints bright pink.
I've run the printer with Vista 64x for 6 months and it has produced excellent results.
I've had it 2 years and it has now been superseded by a newer model but it was top of Canons range and cost 500 GBP when I got it.
This was the first time I'd used it since SP1 so it's definitely the cause. Funny old service pack. Every time I turn round I discover some problem although Vista does seem a bit faster (still not as fast as XP).
MS are offering free support for SP1 problems so I've mailed them but I'm not hopeful.
Thanks again, John
