I have had an HP Z3200 printer for the past 3-4 years. I also have the extended warranty. Recently I have noted some significant color abberations especially in the blue or cyan areas (read sky areas). I have been using ILford Galerie Prestige Smooth Pearl paper and have re-profiled the paper, calibrated the printer, aligned the printheads and cleaned the printheads. I have been having Photoshop manage the printer as recommended. The printouts from these manuevers all all okay but the prints from photos still have these problems. As I don't have a high volume operation a lot of my cartridges and prinheads are outdated ("expired" or "out of warrranty"). A complete set of cartridges and printheads to replace the ones that are outdated or expired (actually I don't know the difference) will cost close to $1000.00. Will expired cartridges or printheads cause this problem? Has anyone else had this problem? If I call support I think they will tell to get all "in warranty" printheads and cartriges but I still might have the same problem as this happened once before and it didn't really fix the problem. Help please.
