Nozzle check.  Don't know how to do such.

Ok we can get to the nozzle checking easily after we get the rest of the information.
Very important that you tell us what it says in the Job Properties section of Qimage next to PRTR ICC.

Also must know the driver settings starting with the screen snap number 2

See snaps

Fred,  My apology on the delay.  There is one thing, Qimage, that is not seen on my printer.  I did locate the alignment test section and such shows after printing the test sheets that there is nothing wrong with such.  Any other suggestions on what to do and or try will be appreciated greatly.

Please explain the above.
Are you able to look at the screen snaps from the previous post and see what yours says?
Perhaps you are saying that you do not see that area?
If that's the case, go to VIEW, top left of screen area, click on behavior of closed panels, and set to manual.
Now click once on the job properties bar, lower right area of the main screen and it will open like my screen snap.

Stay with me!!
We will fix it.

Fred,

When the maintenance button is clicked it brings up the following:
CLEANING
DEEP CLEANING
PRINT HEAD ALIGNMENT
NOZZLE CHECK
BOTTOM PLATE
ROLLER CLEANING
AUTO POWER
QUIET MODE
CUSTOM SETTINGS

I pressed the print head alignment button with two sheets of paper present and the printed results, to myself, looked properly aligned.

Thanks again

Robert,
At this point I still need the answer to the questions posed in my previous three posts.
The buttons on the Maintenance section are not of major concern right now.

My apology Fred,  I bring up a screen that has three sights, printer settings, printer status and trouble shooting.  I open printer settings and go through maintenance where all the previously mentioned sites are located.  If I am doing the wrong thing I am sorry.  Thanks a million for your guidance.

I think we are using different thought patterns.
The title of your problem says problem with printer in Qimage.
So I am trying to make sure your Qimage settings are correct before we go to the Printer setup, or driver.
In order to set the driver properly, I need to know what the Qimage settings are with regard to Printer Profile, Y/N, ON/OFF.
Then I know how to set the driver.
After that, if the problem still exists, we can set Qimage to a generic setting which is designed to make an excellent print without any profile.
If the problem still exists, then we need to look at the image and its color space or embedded or tagged color space.
..... and so on...
So we need your cooperation to stay with the questions and the answers.

Waiting to help!

Fred,

My sincere apology for my total misunderstanding of Qimage.  I do feel that I will have to take my printer to a Canon service center, here in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, for them to hopefully straighten out. 
I do greatly appreciate your professional assistance, once again my apology.

Robert,
Printer repair or service centers are not the place to go for HOW to MAKE prints, the best prints!
I gather from your replies, that my questions have you stymied.
It is all up to how much experience you have dealing with the strange terms we use when trying to print whether you follow the questions.
We all started somewhere and were baffled too in the beginning.
If you would kindly provide me with your email address and phone number, I will be most happy to work through the "minefield" of jargon and terminology.
Within 15 minutes on the telephone, and being able to email screen snap shots to you as we speak, you will be up and running very quickly.

If you don't want to post your phone number, then email it to me at    wathree.ssz@verizon.net
You are also welcome to call me if you would rather not give out your phone number.    941 359 1933  (Sarasota Fl)  See! We are neighbors!!  only 200 miles apart!!

I will be out most all of today, so if you wish to take me up on the offer, let's do it tomorrow or any other day.

(Going out picture taking today!)

I know this is an old thread but I've spent 3 days and alot of paper and ink trying to figure this out and had done everything that posted recommended like turning the printer driver off.  I put new ink in every slot today and still the same ol thing.  I then ran a nozzle check which I have done numerous times the past 3 days and guess what--pc color didn't show up.  Voila--changed it to another new cartride and now prints are beautiful.  Very maddening and hope my post helps somebody.  I think the real key to all this problem is make sure you are not double profiling as so many people have posted and make sure none of your cartridges are clogged.  I had tried printing from every possible way to print I think.
