Canon pro luster paper is not reproducing colors correctly on my Pro 100 printer.

I have been printing from photo shop letting both the photoshop manage color or letting the printer manage color. If i use Glossy paper the results are very close to what I shot with my Nikon d850. The Luster prints have a red brown cast with week blues.

Any one getting good results with pro luster paper ?
 
Yes, I have no issues with Canon Pro Luster or Red River Ultra Satin 4.0. I'm able to reproduce accurate colors that match what I see on my calibrated monitor w/o any issues.

Are you using a color calibrated workflow? What ICC profile are you using, etc?

Sounds like you have color management problems.

below is a link to: Joe Rodriquez or jtoolman


He is a frequent contributor to these forms, uses a pro-100 amount many others, and has several short video's on how to set the canon print driver to turn off color management and use icc paper profiles.

Yes I am using a ICC profile for the correct printer and paper. When I use Canon Glossy paper and its profile I get what is just about what I see from the original image. The blues are diminished with the Luster paper.

What are you using and did you adjust the color profile to increase the blues .

I don't do any special edits, just normal Lightroom white balance, highlights, shadows, exposure, etc... Never adjust any of the colors in the HSL section of the develop module, unless I'm trying to achieve a particular look of course.

So in my experience, I get true accurate colors using Canon's Pro Luster on a Canon PIXMA Pro 100 without having to adjust any particular color.

I am using my own ICC profiles that I created with my ColorMunki. I presume that you're using the Canon provided ICC profile? I did try Canon's when I first got the printer and don't recall any problems, but I prefer to use my own profiles, etc.
 
Have no problems with that combination using :

Canon Pro-100 <LU> 1/2 Photo Paper Pro Luster ( CNBBDUA0.ICM )

Using Canon's profile for Pro Luster, Pro 100 printer, Photoshop CS6 managing the color, Mac OS 10.12.6, Mac Mini mid 2011 (my printer server), getting very good color reproduction. No problems such as you are describing.

What model of the ColorMunki do you use. Sounds like I might need to use my own profiles.

in the printer driver. Did you do this? If not, you will double profile and get strange results.

Also you should use an Evaluation Test print for your testing, not something that you shot.

Use this photo, download it at the bottom of the page. DO NOT EDIT it no matter how it looks on your monitor, print is as is. The prints should look extremely close with the App managing colors, and the Printer managing colors. If one or both print don't look great something is very wrong in your settings.
