Inkjet printers need to be used frequently to prevent ink drying out and blocking the print head nozzles. If the print head cleaning maintenance routine does not clear the blockages, then print head needs replacing, but it may be expensive. It may be more cost effective to buy a later model and better printer than replace the print head.
You are printing a pictures that was made in RGB mode (red green blue). You need to convert this picture to CMYK which is how printers print.
See how here: http://www.printingforless.com/rgb-cmyk.html
It sounds like you may have a damaged ribbon (transfer film) Take out the cartridge and with the barcode side facing you, turn the left spool (takeup spool) counterclockwise until you have seen a complete square of cyan (blue) and magenta (red) and yellow (actually yellow) go past, and then reinsert the tri-color cartridge.
On a picture that you have printed, when you see an area of green, what color should it be? You probably have reduced flow of one of the "balancing" colors. Blue, Yellow and Red add up to Black. If your picture is supposed to be almost black and you don't have enough red, the color will pull toward the blue and yellow, giving it a green tint.
the problem is very simple the magenta ink the cartridge is over or the head is been blocked from where the magenta ink comes out,
because red colour requires ---yellow plus magenta(pink)----to make it red.and ----dark yellow plus magenta(pink) -------- for brown colour.
This is the problem with the cartridge if you brought original Lexmark cartridge you can get it exchanged as the cartridge is nay be defective and the cartridge comes with one year warranty...........................................
