C7280 Guard color printing, even when I told it to print scale high quality grey or black and white

Why this STUPID printer keep printing in color even when I said it to print grayscale or black and white?  I have tried everything I know and it keeps doing.  Now it does not print because the pink cartridge is out!  This printer has cost me a lot of money!  Everyone knows this, or know what to do to fix it?  Maybe I am doing something wrong.

Thanks in advance!

Hello blessedguy11

You can try to contact Microsoft. I noticed Microsoft Answers someone solved their problem even to the bottom of ranking to IE 8.

    Hello lovemutts,

    Thank you for being a member of the HP support forums.  I see you want to learn more about the print settings with one of printing applications to which you are subscribed.

    I've included the document Getting Started with Print Apps and at the request of delivery print Apps .  In the section titled "Managed print Apps" is a sub-section titled 'print settings.  In there, it says "On some printers connected to the web, a settings option is available on the screen of the print Apps Print Preview mode that provides options to select the type of paper and print quality."  If the application you are using does not offer this option so that you will not be able to change all the predefined print settings.

  • Re: Printer suddenly printing in purple or pink, not black and white or color

    I have the same problem. I use a HP Deskjet 1000 (J110 series) number and product CH340A using Windows 7 on a HP Pavilion dv6 laptop.

    When you use The HP Wizard to view the ink levels, it shows the color cartridge with about 20% left and black, 40%. I've done a 'clean cartridge' and then I printed a 'Diagnostic information' sheet. This fact sheet includes, among other things, a test print colors black, yellow, Cyan and Magenta, all who seem to be very good for me. I got a warning message now then that says I'm low on ink and should consider replacing the cartridge if see the shortcomings of the color.

    So, if I'm apparently low ink:

    • Why the diagnosis show 20% and 40% still available?
    • Installed cartridges are original and XL versions and I don't have too many draws, so it shouldn't be there is still a lot of prints to go?
    • When I print the test on plain paper pages, colors are fine, but when you print on blacks of Advanced Photo paper HP out purplish. (I printed herein before photo with no problems)
    • If I need to replace the cartridges, what with 20% left or one black color with 40% left (to be noted that I print in purple instead of black)

    I could assume that replacement cartridges would solve the problem, but I think I would be throwing money in the trash that further much ink in the cartridges and ink. Other solutions or suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    The black cartridge is not used when printing on photo paper as the black pigmented ink is not compatible with photo paper.  If black is printing purple on photo paper, it would be an indication that the yolk runs out.

    I suggest you replace the color cartridge.  The ink level gauge is an estimate, and if you got the first low ink warning on it would be an indication that the cartridge may be empty.

  • How color in "advanced printing preference", I'm only gray, black and white printing is

    Do I need help with layout printing to color at the edge of preference 'print' for my printer all-in-one Photosmart 6520?

    Thank you, forums help really.

  • Canon MG5420 of color instead of black and white printing

    Yes, I read all the similar messages.  Yes, I have a Mac and follow the instructions to use TextEdit to get a printed sample to ensure that preferences are shown in black and white. In the sample of TextEdit, I was able to get a black and white document.

    I have used this printer for 1 1/2 years now without a problem.  Just a few weeks ago, when I print a document to be fair, black and white, it's printing in color or color MIXED WITH black.  Often, it is green with a bit of black or yellow and a bit of black.  When I scan a document or print a copy of a document directly on the Board, it is black and white.  When I print from my computer with Word for Mac or a PDF from Adobe, even if I make sure that the settings are NOT 'default' and the black and white option is selected, prints out in several colors.  I've made sure there's all the new ink in the cartridges, and none are the low toner level.  What to do now?

    Woohoo, Canon technical support with the phone number listed in this thread told me through it all.  It turns out that the head of the nozzle must be cleaned.  There is a small white arrow pointing up at the top of the home screen.  It is not a decoration, as I thought, but if you click on the arrow pointing UPWARDS on the printer controls that access you the parameters Menu.  From there, you can print a focus in color.  In my case, one color appears not at all, even though I had just replaced the color toner in the printer.  It said the tech that I needed to do a cleaning on the menu.  We did it twice and now it's good to go, good as new.  Thank you!

  • Photosmart HP 6520 - print in color, not black and white

    I have had this printer for some time and configure options so that it used only the black cartridge unless I put it specifically to do otherwise when I wanted to color.  It worked well and I could switch between black and white and color very easily.  A few weeks ago, the printer started to ignore the options I would set and printed in color.  I double checked the parameters, and the printer is always set up for black and white, but now it completely ignores and still print in color.

    I tried the settings at the time of printing, and that indicates that the image in black and white, it still prints in color.

    I haven't added any software or made any changes to my pc.

    Can someone help me with this, please?

    Hi Lulu and thank you for the reply!

    I suggest to download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.  Once you have run the tool successfully, try again the configuration in black and white.

    Please let me know the results.

  • JPG of Windows Photo Gallery will not be printed in black and white / grayscale, than by the color.

    All of a sudden, for some reason unknown to me, my mon imprimante printer does not print images JPG from Windows Photo Gallery black and white or grayscale. No matter if I turn it on to or black and white color option / shades of gray option, it only prints in color. If I remove the color of my printer ink cartridge and leave the black alone to, and order the printer to print in black, the printer behaves as if it was printing but the page comes out blank.

    If I try to print, for example Word documents in black and white / shades of gray, they come out, as requested.

  • Lightroom black and white to color

    When I download my pictures from my camera to lightroom 2.2 it takes pictures that I shot in black and white and converts them into color t-anyone knows if there is a setting or a way to avoid this?

    Hi Andrew

    I'm assuming that you are shooting in RAW. If you take photos in JPG format, you will get the black and white photos. The reason why you see a black and white in reading on the camera must be because the camera shows a preview in black and white.

    Fortunately for you, RAW capture red, green and blue and combines them into a picture, your photo. If the RAW converter in lightroom necessarily combines the components, which makes a color image.

    It's a good thing. RAW images capture as much as possible, if you have a lot of information and details for a shot as possible.

    Black and white conversion in lightroom allows you to play with colours by photos. If she has imported black and white you would have lost so much information.

    What if you came home for a shoot and directed a shot could have been great in color, or you rushed to film a sunset forgetting that the setting was on black and white...

    To make the lightroom import photos in black and white, you will have to do a develop preset.

    more simple way, forgive me if I'm teaching to suck you eggs.

    1. open lightroom

    2 goto development

    3. click on shades of gray in base salary

    4. right click on the thumbnail on the bottom which is now black and white go gold the PRESETs on the left of the screen by opening the Panel if ifs not here and click on the +.

    5. enter a name of the preset - import IE black and white

    6. Select Auto Grayscale Mix

    7. click on create

    1 preselection made

    To import

    1. click on library

    2. click on file and import - from the disk, the system...

    3. Select the files you want to import as a black and white, check them while they are selected

    go to the development parameters

    has chosen the basic settings and

    According to the information to apply develop settings and select from the drop-down list select import in black and white

    and then import it.

    The pictures you have selected then will be black and white.

    It will work - you may need to remember which photos were black and white as thumbnails in the import dialoge may not be black and white.

    I'm not black and white I want to play with the color that I made in black and white.

    Mode shooting black and white means that you can NEVER have a color version of the photo, so you may lose is a beautiful photo of your bet.

    As you use Lightroom, you're messing around with the images, so shoot color, and then click Grayscale and play them with the mixture of shades of gray, you'll have a lot more fun.

    But who is mentioned above process will bring your black and white photos.

    Hope that helps you

    (I still shoot color and convert every time - even if jpeg)

  • Qosmio G20-109: first channel television in black and white and then in color

    Hello
    I purchased a Qosmio G20-109 in France a week ago.
    It works perfectly except the TV.
    When I start the Tv game, the first string is in black and white.
    If I change the channel, the next ones are in color.
    The drivers are ok;

    You have an idea to solve this problem?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Chris

    Your problem is a specific problem of the country. It is not easy to say what may be the problem. The only thing I can suggest is manual programming of the channels. You can maybe on this way to find an exact frequency of this channel.

  • black and white printing with a mac

    I've recently upgraded from a Dell Windows PC to an iMac with OS 10.9. I use my old HP 6500e 710 a Officejet All in One.

    In general, I print most of my documents in black and white that was available on version Windows 7 driver.

    On the iMac OS 10.9 driver version, I can print only in black and white in "draft" mode

    Based on another ad I saw on this forum, the drop-down list for a different HP printer (I think than 8300) had the function Select B & W print in any quality. In addition, she had 'gray levels' selectable.

    I seems that my version of the pilot V2.4.0 - 2 does not have the full options compliment. HP needs to update this driver OS 10.9.

    Can anyone HELP!

    happytohelp01,

    I got an answer from HP Support pointing me driver for Apple on the support site software Apple; HP v.2.16.1 for OS X printer drivers.

    Step 3: Change the print settings

    1 open the document you want to print

    2. click on file , then print

    3. make sure that the correct printer name is selected.

    4. we'll find the orientation option, there are menu drop-down. Select the Type of paper/quality (see the attached screenshot)

    5. click on Color Options.

    6. Select the Grayscale under color

    7. click on print.

    You can create a preset using the procedure below so that you don't have to change the settings every time that you print.

    1. click on menu presets

    2. click on create new preset

    3. assign a predefined name

    4 confirm to create the preset.

    Next time, you can select the predefined name for the settings that you have made.

  • My actions do not work when I play action, it looks like black and white squiggles.  Any suggestions on what could be the problem

    I'm still learning photoshop and are passed to the application of the measures.  When I apply the actions of the system, I get a black and white scribble everywhere in my picture.  I imported stocks of larger than Gatsby and they don't play all, play is grayed out.  When I first tried to import the actions they were greyed out.  Does anyone have suggestions on what to do?

    I see that you have used the Action of molten lead, and it is supposed to perform as in the screenshot.

    So if you wish, you can reduce the opacity of the most recent layer which has been created, it is layer 1.

  • Several printers print color when I choose black and white

    Here's a strange. Using a 5520 and a 7520, two printers will only print in color, black and white. I made sure I select black and white, and I've updated my drivers. Any ideas? Others use these printers without this issue, then it might be on my end, but I have no idea what it would be.

    Hello @Alex-Tutorme, greetings!

    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 in two of your printers.

    We will try to change the printing preferences:

    • Go to control panel - devices and printers - give a Photosmart 7520 (also on Photosmart 5520) right-click and select Printing Preferences.
    • Go to the tab "paper / quality" and make sure that 'Black and white' is selected.
    • Now, click on the 'Advanced' button - check to the option "print in grayscale". Make sure it is turned on. Apply and save the settings.
