I have a colour cast problem when printing from Affinity to my Canon Pixma ip8750.  I believe it might relate to upgrading my laptop from Windows 10 to Windows 11 because I haven't altered any of my printer settings and I have previously successfully printed black and white images from Affinity with this printer. I can still print without problem using the same printer with Canon DPP software. Has anyone else noticed a similar problem?

Hi @jchrisj52 Welcome to the forums.

Can you provide a screenshot of the document open in Affinity and a image of the printout? Also can you let me know your print settings from within Affinity.

Hi, I also have a colour cast when printing to a monochrome image my Canon IP8750 (Adobe RGB colour space). However, I have the same blue colour cast when I print from Affinity Photo  to PDF (so its not a fault with my Canon printer) -  but the image looks fine on my calibrated monitor. The problem is intermittent as a few prints come out ok then the blue colour cast occurs!

I downloaded a black & white test image from the web (which is in a different colour space - gray gamma) and it printed ok.

Any further thoughts on how to resolve this, please?

If you can consistently get the blue colour cast with a specific image please upload that Affinity Photo document to the forum so we can see what it may be

Or are you saying that sometimes the same image prints Ok and at other times does not?

Thanks for your response. I think I have identified the problem. I had a sharpening macro at the top of my layer stack. If I create a consolidated layer I am not having the problem with the blue colour cast. Hopefully that was the reason....
