Lightroom 9.1 not saving paper type in print templates

[henrikolsen]

I just noticed that my Lightroom (9.1 classic) no longer saves my paper type selection when saving/updated templates. I'm running macOS 10.15.2 and printer driver is 21.10 for a Canon Pro-1000. When loading a template and pressing Print Settings, the driver is now always set to Photo Paper Pro Platinum. Quite an issue, as I really love the ease of use of my templates for different papers and layouts, gotten used to trusting it just works, once setup.

Anyone else experienced this issue?

Ouch. I notice that my prints look wrong as well now. Color matching seem off on three papers just used. I make my own profiles with i1Pro and argyllCMS, and it just normally works for me, with nice match from screen to print, but not now for whatever unknown reason. Everything is set as I normally have it, screen, driver settings, color workflow etc.

Again, combo is Lightroom (9.1 classic), macOS 10.15.2 and printer driver is 21.10 for a Canon Pro-1000 (firmware 3.010). Tried reinstalling the printer driver, no improvement.

I will try and make some measurements soon and see if they are indeed as off as my eyes are telling me, or I'm just loosing it.

Would be nice knowing if anyone else has suddenly seen their color management slip with this combination of software. Perhaps an issue snuck in with OS or driver/firmware updates.

There's some discussion of what seems to be this problem here.

Canon has released a new driver update, version 21.10.1.0, previous version was 21.10.0.0. It seems to have solved the issue with printer driver settings not being correctly restored. Whether it also solves the change of color output I have observed, I don't know yet.

The driver update from December 24th to 21.10.1.0 did bring colors back on track. Glad it has been fixed.
