Deskjet 712C and 722C purple cast in XP?

For the past several weeks I have noticed that photos printed on my HP deskjet 712C have had a purplish cast. I have been trying to print the thumbnails at Most of these indoor pictures were taken with incandescent light and should be very warm in tone.

Most of these indoor pictures were taken with incandescent light and should be very warm in tone. Instead they all have a purple cast instead of the golden glow they display on the screen.
 
I have changed cartridges and even borrowed my daughter's 722C with no discernable difference, so the issue must be software? Right?
 
Isn't there some way to tweak the RGB values for these printers in XP Home?
 
Suggestions appreciated.
 
Thanks,
