We use a color head to print and set everything to zero. What effects will using Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow produce? I'm also posting this in the darkroom forum.

I assume your talking B&W materials here, for colour materials it affects the colour balance.
If your using multi grade or variable grade papers the colour will affect contrast, see the documentation for the paper to see what different filter settings with do.
Moderators As this thread is aimed at B&W printing then it might help the OP if the two treads were merged? One is in the Colour area but colour printing info isn't relevant
If you add cyan when you are already using yellow and magenta will produce a neutral density filter and just reduce the amount of light hitting the papers. Therefore, keep the cyan at zero.
