Canon printer problem
Having some colour problems with my Canon S820 when printing in anything other than plain paper setting.
When set to plain paper it's all good, as soon as I change to say photo paper glossy the Black goes very Green and the others colours are affected as well.
All the cartridges have ink in them, I've run several head cleans and nozzle checks. I'm tempted to give the head a more aggressive clean, but can't understand why changing the paper setting is making a difference.

Just to close this out should anyone have anything smilar.
The print head was blocked on the photo colours, it doesn't use these when printing in plain paper.
Used some Propan (alcolhol) and blew it out with compressed air. Was obviously to much for the standard clean to shift, which also uses loads of ink.
