Default epson colour printing

I have an Epson XP-405 printer and despite using genuine Epson inks the
printed colours are not right. The pinks and Magenta are coming out
yellowish and even a scarlet red is a dull yellow. I have cleaned the
heads, unticked the grey scale, checked the driver, done all I can think of
including trying to reset the colours from the colour chart (circle).
Can anyone give me advice? I am reluctant to disconnect the printer and
then have to reinstall it with all its software.


what apps are you using and most importantly, are you using a colour
managed workflow?


Given the type of printer, an Epson "Small-in-One" printer, not a
dedicated photo printer, I doubt that the OP has even thought of a
color managed workflow, or even understands what that means.


if so, then the answer would be no, which means it's time to learn.
