Doug,
I think I am having the same problem with my R1800 and a new CIS. Have
you managed to fully resolve the issue? 
I have noticed that reds seem too saturated and yellows tend toward
orange. My grayscales seem fine. I have used PrintFix Pro extensively
with my 4000 with no issues and the R1800 seemed fine before adding
the CIS.

Thanks
Peter
