I would guess it’s a setting in your printer drivers somewhere.

No, it is a setting in Photoshop CS, but I don’t remember where I found this. There are 4 settings as I remember : cartoon, coloring book, negative and another one…any idea ? Jaro

File>page setup> takes you into your printer driver properties.

I suspect you’ll find it in there but I am only guessing.

Sounds like you got in to the filter gallery at filter>filter gallery .. . . The "artistic" and brush stroke groups of filters will give those sorts of funny paper looks.

Sorry but I tried everything in PS and cannot find what I did, it looks like that I asked to print as comic st6rip as a default but where did I do that, spent the last 4 days trying to figure out. My printer is a canon i850 and nothing there.
I print the same photos in other software and they are OK, search me….Jaro

It sounds to me like you have somehow set photoshop to use some sort of very wrong printer profile on your printer. If you go to file>print with preview, check the "show more options" box, and select color management in the drop down list you will what color space you are using and what printer profile you are using. Take a look and see whether there is a profile that matches your printer and paper better than whatever is there. This may have been changed by accident somehow of the profile for that printer may have gotten messed up somehow.

If there is an "Effects" tab in the printer (driver) dialog, check that the "Illustration" effect is not turned on.
If it’s not there, maybe dl and update the printer driver from canon. It should show in your printer’s user manual.
