Are you using a custom built instrument measured output profile? (Color
issues usually start with the use of a canned profile).
If you are using a custom profile, make sure the settings you created when
you built the profile match the settings you are currently using, i.e.
driver/RIP color management, linearization, resolution, dot pattern, and
media type.
Make sure either the application, the OS, or the printer driver is doing the
conversion from source color to destination color. Too often we see people
doing double conversions.
Finally, have a copy of "Real World Color Management" handy and religiously
read the posts from the fine folks who populate these lists.
