It's a bit behind the times, but colour printing via my Xerox 8550
Phaser was never a problem until I "upgraded" to 8.04. Now the colours
are "muddy" Printing the Ubuntu logo gives:
reds that are dark brown
oranges that are brownish ornage
yellows that are a dull goldish colour

Checked the ppd files and re-installed and re-booted but still no luck.
Even the self test print with does Grayscale + RGB and CMYK are
"shifted" into the dull/muddy colour scale.

suggestions?
