    photo prints out with a red tint
    « on: January 31, 2010, 11:59:41 AM »
    my printer is an HP Deskjet 1500.

    I had brand new ink cartridges when I started. first time I printed the photo I had the wrong setting so it ended up printing out small but it had the right colors.
    now everytime it prints, it prints the right size but it has a red tint to it.

    I've tried running diagnostic page and had the cartridges cleaned.

    I tried using Microsoft Office picture manager to autocorrect it and renamed it to a jpg file.


    now that I've done a few sheets on this one photo my color cartridge has now only a little more than half left but that should be enough right? there's plenty of black left still btw.

    I've never used this printer before for photos btw and I was able to print photos perfectly with the one I had before..so I'm kinda thinking it's the printer but idk.

        Are they HP cartridges?
