I don't have one of those watching, but in general, it is in "Printing Options" which you can access by clicking right into printers and faxes or by simply clicking on the button 'Properties' in a print dialog box (once you have selected the printer).  If I had to guess, I'd start by looking at the "Color" tab, but it could be on a different tab.

  • If I only print in black why my HP Photosmart C6180 uses up color cartirges? Are expensive!

    If I only print in black why my HP Photosmart C6180 uses up color cartirges? Are expensive!

    Hello

    All printers do the same thing that even many printers have an option to print in black INK ONLY. The reason: during the process of global warming, printers need to use all inks to check and maintain their print heads... Some people say, we turn on the printer / OFF it will use more ink, I can't confirm that but understandable.

    Kind regards.

  • Print issues with old photos scanned .jpeg prints too large & can't print in black & white

    I have a bunch of old photos & scanned articles of a scanner flat of maybe 10 years ago or not.   These are all .jpeg files.

    First of all, when I print on the Windows Live Photo Gallery, they are all print in color, no matter if I change my printer settings or if I go in settings in Windows Live Photo Gallery and deselect color.

    Secondly, not printing in black & white, they all print out extra large and therefore do not fit on an 8 1/2 x 11 pages.  All this elements analysed in years were roughly between 3 "x 5" until maybe 8 'x 10'. "  The fact is that they don't print as I would like.

    One last question, is that I have a newspaper article large .pdf format.  I printed it weeks and had no point of color above.  But I printed this on paper 11 "x 17".pdf file.  She printed on the entire page, but it was stopped at the bottom of each printed page, and I don't understand why.  Which certainly confused me.  Any suggestions?  My plan was to save the pages together to view the log what it was.  It's pages of the newspaper of 1886.

    Thank you

    Hi Sue,

    We apologize for the delay in response.

    This problem occurs with the printer settings.

    I wish that you run the printer Troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-printer-Troubleshooter

    Note: He made sure that a printer is connected to your computer, and it checks for common issues such as whether the printer has enough paper and toner to complete printing your document.

    If the problem persists, please refer to the article and check if it helps.

  • 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!

    See you soon

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus: 8600 pro only printing in black and white

    Hello

    I have recently switched to an Imac OS X Yosemite running on a windows computer.

    I installed the software disc supplied with the printer for OSX 10.6 mountain lLon, which has been updated automatically during the installation. The problem is the printer will print only in black & white and lists the printer as a generic laser printer.

    should I uninstall the current software and reinstall a version of zero software.

    {Thread moved to applicable forum}

    Read the documentation that came with your printer, or which is available on the web site of the manufacturer of the printer if you want to know the features of the printer.  Examine the dialogues of the driver properties (by right-clicking on the printer in printers and faxes or printers and devices folder (depends on your version of Windows and you never said that) and choosing Properties or printing preferences > printing preferences.)  Somewhere in these properties will be an option "levels of gray.

    scarlattid3,

    The Cancel button must be located in the lower right of the screen. The only thing is that it won't show until you start the work print or copy and then it should appear for you.

    The Officejet Pro 8500 (like the Officejet Pro 8610) has separate printheads and ink supplies, with "plumbing" to connect.  You have color ink available to keep the print head and plumbing butcher, even if you are printing black only (and in your case you don't care is if the color print heads clogged).
