Frank:

Reinald had a good point, and if you are "enjoying a Mac" as I am, a  
utility such as Apple's Colorsync utility may prove useful. It will  
inspect and repair if necessary, your profiles. If it can't, then you  
will know what to replace. Have you tried printing to different  
papers (and different profiles)?

I have had pink images myself, and that is what I had to do.
