• Why can I not print in black and white only?

  Why is the HP Officejet Pro 8600 more unable to print black and white only if the black cartridge is not empty?

  What I mean is that I went into the settings to set the printer to print black and white only but also print text in black only.  Yet, I HAVE to replace the cyan, magenta and yellow cartridges, because they are exhausted.  Nothing to do with black printing, whereas a SEPARATE black cartridge is and is always full should cyan, magenta and yellow ink?

  I'm aggravated about how the driver for this printer is designed TO FORCE me to buy cartridges not black when I deliberately put printing be BLACK ONLY.  I'm unable to move forward with my impression.  This is considered to be a show-stopper and is unacceptable as the setting that I've assigned and exhausted cartridges message contradict each other.  If the adjustment is made for print in black and white only including text, then print black and white, because I know that the black ink is still available.

  Take into consideration that printing may take place at any time.  Not being able to use black as my other color (WHICH IS NOT EMPTY AND IS A SEPARATE CARTRIDGE) forces me to stop.  I can't go forward until the store open.  Wal-Mart isn't always an option.   It's lost time.

  The inability to switch to self-supply to meet to use the black cartridge is only a waste of time.

  Call it for what it is, a form of ransom. HP wants me to spend the money on the color cartridges that have nothing to do with black and white printing.   When I am ready to print in color, which should be a time of my choosing.

  Either way, the form, which I am trying to print is black and white only.  No color is on this form.  It is foolish to force printing in color to a black and white document.

  Hello

  Specially protect the print heads printers much NEED other inks even they only print in black. During the warm-up process, printers require all inks so they can stop before we continue. Some printers allow printing (especially those who have the ink tank three colors), but they can print at a speed of snail baby.

  Kind regards.

• HP 4520 Envy: Envy 4520 only printing in black and white

  Whenever I try to print a PDF online or a document of microsoft word or powerpoint ect., it prints in black and white. I did a test of color of the printer and align the cartridges and everything went well. The properties are not set to print in grayscale. I have no idea how to solve this problem.

  Hello @BlueOlive, greetings!

  Thank you for joining the HP support forums, I would like to help

  I understand that your printer prints in black and white only, even if you can make a color copy.

  According to me, the question is in the print settings itself. Please follow the steps and check mentioned below:

  • Go to control panel - devices and printers - give Envy 4520 right-click and select Printing Preferences.
  • In the pop-up window, click on the 'Advanced' button - check for printing in grayscale option. Make sure it is turned off.
  • Also once you try to print a document please go to properties of the printer to make sure it is not set in the option "print in grayscale".

  If the steps above has not resolved the problem, it could be a problem with the printer drivers. In this case, we might need to uninstall the drivers and re - install the same. You can visit http://hp.care/2bYZled to download the drivers.

  Let me know how it goes!

• 6520 photosmart all-in-one: can't get Photosmart 6520 to print in black and white only reliable

  I'm trying to get the 6520 Photosmart of HP all-in-one to print only in black and white. I followed the instructions in the manual (go to the preferences of the printer by selecting "Black ink" only 'Print in grayscale,' hit 'Apply' and 'Send'.)

  Now, if I do a table in the word processor Open Office and fill the cells with different colors, they print in black and white. Bonus. This is what I want. However ... When I print a page of Open Office spreadsheet (the ultimate goal), there are all the cells, printed in color of life.

  That is what it is? How can I fix?

  Afternoon @MSWS,.

  I can help you with the printing settings in Open Office.

  It seems that this program has its own options that can bypass the default print settings.

  I found this page of support which may help you with the settings. OpenOffice - control print

• I ONLY NEED TO PRINT IN BLACK AND WHITE

  I was almost out of ink for my all in one printer. I could only replace the cartridge and the Black Yellow now, which is OK because I only need to print in black and white. I've adjusted the page screenshot on print "to print in black ink only" screen and click on 'apply '. But now it always sends a message saying that she does not print unless ALL the cartridges are replaced. I don't need to print in color! What can I do to get the printer to use black ink until I can afforsd to buy the other two color cartridge?

  You should check with the printer manufacturers support site, but many printers will print at all if no have all the ink cartridges.

  Windows cannot override the printer design in this area.

• Cannot print just black and white - cannot print all black when a low cartridge

  I had this 6700 Officejet just long enough the warranty has expired. Go figure. I have 2 problems.

  1. from my PC, it will print not just black and white, even if I chose "printing black and white only. I have to go through the whole syetem of dialogue ect ect, which is delayed. It prints perfectly just black and white of my portable Macbok.

  2. it won't let me print a document all in black and white, because I have a low color cartridge. Whey do I have to have color cartridges to print just a black and white document. Very annoying and frustrating. I'm almost ready to use as target.

  Hi fpsolutionsllc,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand your frustration and want to enlighten us and also bring some answers to your questions about the ink on your HP OfficeJet 6700 systems.

  1. you are able to go to your printer properties and change your settings for printing in black and white only, without having to change it whenever you want to print something. See the steps listed below:

  * Go to your devices and printers

  * Right-click on your 6700 and select Print Options

  * Select your desired default and press Ok

  2. you cannot print without all cartridges installed because even if printing black and white printer will still use the ink contained in the cartridges of color for maintenance tasks. It takes little ink from all cartridges in the service of the print head and avoid any clogging. To get a better understanding of take a look here: use of inkjet printers ink.

  I've found this useful information here: a 'ink alert' or "Low on ink" Message appears on the computer or the printer control panel

  Thank you

• HP ENVY 5644 e-all-in-one Prin: I want to print in black and white

  Hello

  I wanted to print in black and white but still my printer print in color when there is a picture in the paper, it's really annoying because when I go to the properties of the printer I press black and white or black press ink only then when I press on save, I'll be back in the printer properties to find her back to color No matter how many times I put it in black and white it goes back to color. I tried pressing black and white and not return to the printer properties, but it still prints in color. Also, I changed my default settings of the printer in black and white through the control panel and tap Save. When I go into Control Panel, its saved printer properties such as black and white by default, so that's good. But for some reason when theres color of text or an image on the page I want to print, I can not change to print in black and white, keeps coming back to color.

  Please help me!

  Hello @Matthew002, hope you are well!

  Thank you for joining the HP support forums, I would like to help

  I understand that you are having problems when printing in black and white and also the printer goes "offline".

  Going through your post, this could be a problem with the printer drivers. In this case, we might need to uninstall the drivers and re - install the same.

  • If present, disconnect the USB cable between the printer and the computer.
  • Go to control panel of configuration-programs and feature - select the HP Envy printer entries and uninstall them.
  • Restart your computer.
  • Now, click http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/printers/en5640/Basic_Webpack_x64-40.2.1073-EN5640_Basicx64_Webpack.exe and install the printer drivers.
  • If you are prompted, connect the USB cable.

  Now try to change the printing preferences:

  • Go to control panel - devices and printers - give Envy 5640 right-click and select Printing Preferences.
  • In the pop-up window, click on the 'Advanced' button - check for printing in grayscale option. Make sure it is turned on

  PS: Your printer support mode single cartridge. So if you want to completely stop color printing you can get out the color cartridge and use only black.

  Let me know if this helps. Good luck!

  See you soon
