Chances are it's not poor setting of the machine. The photolab where I work
uses an ancient Konica printer. I've found that if I set the machine so
that I get a good, balanced print on a "normal" negative, the negatives that
are somewhat underexposed have a green tint, and those that are overexposed
have a magenta tint.
