I am very dissatisfied with the poor color rendition achieved with my
printer (too much magenta). Is there any permanent adjustment that can be
made, rather than using the 'hit or miss' adjustments that can be made just
before printing?

Do you mean "warm", or heavily over-magenta? Prints that heavily
over-magenta are usually a sign of double color management. What program
are you printing from, and what driver/paper settings are you using?
 
I probably mean 'warm'. The problem can be eased by adding 5% to yellow and
reducing magenta by 5% in the print properties dialogue box, at prinout.

I use PhotoSuite 4, Jessops Premuim Glossy photopaper. I can't say precisely
what driver is beng used. How could I find out?

Thanks for your help.
