When you were printing out the profile charts did you use Photoshop?

I had the same problem, newer versions of Photoshop only have a choice of Printer manages colour or Photoshop manages colour which adds its own profile..even when you set No colour adjustment.

You need to use the Adobe Colour Print Adjustment tool to print the ICC charts.

When you did the test chart printing, were the printer quality/media settings the same as in your 2nd picture?

Yes. The media type is what I was told to use for trupix paper.

Are you using Chinese ink and have you experimented with pressing times?
