    Hello
    I am using Canon MP 750 from several years with pleasure.
    Now moving to Mavericks, this OS doesn't handle MP 750 (too old printer)

    So I installed today gutenprint 5.2.10a on Mavericks.
    Printer is found and I can print .
    B&W prints are good,
    but color prints are dull : red is pink and so on

    Then I tried all avalable icc profiles in color managment: sme results

    I going back to Snow leopard, where MP 750 is propperly handled, I find a .icc
    named Canon MP780 SP2.icc and copy it in Mavericks/Syst/Lib/ColorSync/
    I launch a new test print, I selected this profile
    same result, dull colors

    So I will appreciate any help on this topic: how to recover correct colors using gutenprint
    on a Canon inkjet MP750

    Thanks

    Bernard

    Just to explain what I mean:
    attached image on the left image printed using gutenprint Canon MP780 SP2.icc
    on the rght same image printed from Snow leopard using canon driver.
    Red and blue are missing on left image compared to right one.
