Colour test print, or settings to produce one?

My Canon i9100 has started to produce some odd coloured prints and I'd
like to pin down which particular cartridge or head colour is playing
up. The B&W prints that I was doing started to come out distinctly
magenta, but before that I kept getting the occasional green one. As
B&W mostly use photo cyan and photo magenta it's probably the photo
cyan gone awol, but I'd like to make sure. It's strange because a
normal nozzle test print shows that everything is ok. I've found a
cyan/yellow/magenta/black chart to print, which told me that all those
colours were ok, but I need to print photo cyan and photo magenta.
Does anybody know of a link to get a colour chart to print, or the
colour settings in Photoshop to produce photo cyan and photo magenta?

If your nozzle checks are good, you're either looking at a driver or color
management issue. Sounds to me like you just toggled a PS or driver setting
that you are unaware of.
