Hi Seamus, you will find that of a certain model of printer, not all devices print quite the same. This was most prevalent on some of the older A3+ models (1270 and 1290 being really good examples of this). However, it is also an issue on the 4000 - I have a friend who has 3 of these, all of which provide reasonably similar colour.... and were pretty good straight out of the box. Ours however was incredibly dark & laid down far too much ink. I had to reprint my evaluation chart as I thought I must have used the wrong settings...... See if there are any 3rd party profiles available.. or try increasing the ink density levels, but that really is a fudge in this context. Or better still, get someone to profile it for you!!! This variability is why people can make a living out of profiling other people's equipment - if they all printed the same, they'd have to find another area to work in!!!
