Hey!

Trying to print cover (on canon pixma ts702) doesn't get the same color, gets a darker image than on the cover.
How do I fix it? Any settings to change?

Quickest solution would be to edit the image to be brighter so when you print it it's more closely to the desired results.

Are you using good quality paper?  Makes a massive difference how the ink gets soaked up by the paper.  If its too thin like copier paper it gets saturated, dark, and bleeds.  Get some high white heavier (40+lb) paper stock.  You should feel the difference and see the change in print quality.
