HP Control Print

I changed out a few things, new optimizer, a few inks and a print head recently. Of course my colours went ballistic.

So then I re-did the ICC for some paper and ran the HP Control Print for comparison. Not even close. The brown of the color blocks, the womans' face and the shoe all look bluish. What was once kinds lilac now looks purple. Was the profile and original HP Control Print incorrect or has something gone off the rails?

Maybe something gets corrupted in your profile. Try creating a new one from crate with color calibration and icc, sync the media library and reprint the file.

Did that a few times and the results are the same. I've attached images from last May and yesterday for reference. Differences are quite significant, to me anyway.

I guess what I should be asking or looking for is what the output should look like. Maybe what I have is correct and what I had was incorrect. What is the benchmark and where would I find that?
