HP Officejet Pro 6830: How can I set up my printer to print only in black and white?

Hello
I was wondering if someone can help me. I want to be able to print in black just on my printer.

My printer is a HP Officejet Pro 6830, and my operating system is Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite.

I don't have an option on my Word program which allows me to 'gray levels' or any type of color option.

Any help would be great, thank you in advance!

Hello
Follow the steps below to print using black ink only:

1. from the application used to print, click the file menu and select print. The print window is displayed.
NOTE: The print window might be minimized: click Show details to display all available parameters.

2. to access the color options, click in the area of selection below, listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.

3. Select Type/quality paper in the menu dropdown.

4. click the triangle next to color Options of spending parameters.

5. set the color to grayscale field.

6. set the Mode to grayscale in black cartridge only.

You can save the settings for later use by clicking preset > save current settings as preset.

A used preset will be default, so simply select the standard preset to print in color.

  • HP 8600 Pro - default is Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600, how can I change the ordinary printer

    Running Win 8.  Under control panel, the print device only shown is Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600.  In specific applications, I choose the HP Officejet Pro 8600 in the drop down menu, but this option in not avialable in the control panel to make the printer regularly by default.

    I hope I am explaining that properly.

    When you right-click on the Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600 icon and browse to set a default done it gives the choice, if not
    Click on the printer icon and look for the properties of the server printer on the top of the page to go to tab drivers and check if it shows you only officejet Pro listed twice a 8600 8600 series and the other as a Fax.

    If you see the two that could be the problem of installation does not complete successfully. I would uninstall from Add/Remove programs to remove the entry from the server properties and install the lates SW of the website the link is below

    Thanks for your help.  Yes, go to advanced and clicking on shades of gray to reveal the drop down menu worked for then change of 'no' to 'black ink only.  Why I missed it is that I have not seen any menu drop-down.  Had to click Grayscale to make it appear.  Maybe who want just that we use more ink, so that they can sell more.  Do you think?

    Original title: How can I set my default printer, I have office 2010, it was OK, but for some reason, it is by default.

    Hi MinnieTraynor,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community. It seems that you have a problem with setting the default printer on Windows 7. This can be very frustrating for you, and I appreciate the efforts you have put in. Let us work together as a team to get this number fixed.

    We start with a few questions-

    (1) what is the brand and model of the printer?

    (2) have you made changes on the computer?

    I would like more information about the issue.

    Method-

    I would have you look at the article-

  • not the case in the present site gives a phone number to explain my contract, I can move from one computer to another? How can I set up for printing to Adobe

    Not the case in the present site gives a phone number to explain my contract, I can move from one computer to another?

    How can I set up for printing to Adobe

    So far, it is not necessary for a person no-tech.

    If you have a normal single-user license or subscription, you are allowed to have two active facilities as long as you use only one of them for the software at the same time.  You can disable and re-enable them if necessary to install on another machine.

    How can I remove the "Fax - HP Officejet Pro 6830 (network)" option in the list of candidates of printer? First of all, I am a VoIP client and my salesman, like many others, does not fax support. In second place both my wife and I inadvertently try to print using this entry much to our annoyance. In third place for a non-commercial customer, it's an archaic device and that there should be a way to turn it off. "Fax - HP Officejet Pro 6830" does not appear in "Devices and printers", but it is in the registry.

    There is no entry "FAX". I gave up. I would attach a print screen, but I don't see how.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: Printer OfficeJet Pro 6830 how to scan to PDF files

    I bought a HP OfficeJet Pro 6830, and I can't understand how to scan documents from the printer to my computer in PDF format. It analyzes only in JPEG format.

    The documentation I found online says that the PDF option should be present on the touch screen, but are the only options on my printer to scan to the computer, fax scan, scan to e-mail, etc..

    I have 10 windows and a new HP laptop.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    Thanks for your comments.

    The disc that came with the printer may or may not have the support to win 10 OS as the priter was launched before Win 10 is available - where the download URL would be a safer way to get the WIn 10 OS feature MANY software.

    We recommend that you download (save on the hard drive) rather than installing in online it.

    After you install the FULL features software, you will be able to scan in PDF format.

    Hope that helps.

  • OfficeJet 150 Mobile - print is not black and white!

    Hello

    I have a few documents of color I want to print that really don't need to be in color. I assume here it makes sense to print in black and white except if required?

    Then next question is how can I do? I select 'Black & White' as a print option, but again, it goes ahead and print in color.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hello again,

    I am happy to see that (for the most part) information I provided gave you a positive direction to solve your problem.  Once you make the changes, the settings are good for a print job. If the print job is 20 pages, then it will remain for all 20. If the print job is 1 page is all settings will remain. The bottom line is, you need to go and adjust the settings for each individual print job.  Once more I'm always happy to help you.

    If the information that I have provided has helped to solve the problem, please click the "acceptable Solution" part at the bottom of MY post so that others can find this solution. If you are happy with the troubleshooting and you think that I've helped you, please click the 'Thumbs Up' from my post as well.

    It has been a pleasure to work with you and please let me know if I can lend a hand again.

    Thank you.
