We solved the problem... 
We decided to try and make the printer work well, so we took two square picture with different colors one green with orange and the other one magenta with yellow. We printed as it was and it turned out green, then we thought about using some profiles G had for the printer, and we use it with vivid colors and it improved a lot but the orange was red! So we disable the vivid colors and it turned out superb!! The colors are almost as I can see them in the computer. I printed in canvas yesterday and the colors had a bit of magenta so I reduced it just -1 in the manual adjustment color.
I found a writing about canon paper, ink and printer and they explain how I have to work with my pictures in photoshop and what profile I have to use and so on... Anyway a lot to learn about this topic still, but I am happier now. I haven't tried a bw picture yet, maybe it is time to give another try now...
