I am trying to print in black and white with my hp officejet 6500 a. I use a macbook with safari.

Can you help me?

Hello

  1. Open the file woiuld you want to print, and then click file > print.
  2. Look for and click on the area of selection below, known as the name of the Application (e.g. Safari) ot Copies & Pages in MS Office print dialog box.
    You may need to dedicate the printing options by clicking on the arrow next to the name of the printer for Mac OS 10.6 or by clicking on the button show details for Lion.
  3. Click on Paper Type / quality.
  4. Click on the arrow beside Color Options to spend the color options.
  5. The value of color to Grayscale.
  6. Now you can set like quality or using black ink only.

You can save your settings for future use by clicking on the preset selection box.
Then, you'll be able to easily select from the presets list

Please let me know of any questions,

  • 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.

    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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Black and white photos at the start of printing OK then turns reddish, changed the cartridges, same problem

    HP Photosmart C4600 all in one printer, HP, Windows7 desktop. When I try to print copies of old black & white photos, on premium Matt paper or any document (I tried all), with settings for grayscale or black and white, printing starts OK (black & white) and soon begins to print with a reddish tint. I changed the cartridge back & White 3 times with the HP cartridges and the problem persists. I cleaned my print heads, the problem persists, I tried various other parameters without result. Finally, I gave up and I went back to my old Epson 15 year for problem free Photo printing. How can this problem be fixed? Thank you!

    When you print graphics color cartridges are usually used to print even black and white.  In addition, when printing on the paper color photo is always used as the pigmented black ink cartridge is not compatible with the photo paper.

    It would seem that your color ink runs out.  See the troubleshooting steps described in this page.  Most likely, you need a fresh color cartridge.

  • using the color laserjet 3600n - I want to print in black and white, but it prints black and white negative. * beep *.

    using the color laserjet 3600n - I want to print in black and white, but it prints black and white negative.  * beep *.

    I was able to recreate what you see.   I managed to work around it by installing a different driver that is also supposed to be compatible with the CLJ3600.

    Please consider trying this as a possible solution:

    (1) uninstall the driver CLJ3600 by opening printers and fax machines, driver selection and right-click on it and select Delete.  Once it is removed, right-click on an empty space in the windows printers and faxes and select Server properties.  Click the driver tab, click the CLJ3600 and then click on remove.

    One when you're done, restart, and then install the CLJ3500 driver.  This is a previous version of the driver that has been implemented for the CLJ3600 and is compatible with the CLJ3600.

    After installation, try printing again.

    The output I have indicates it will print is more negative.  Please let me know if you have success.

    One caveat about this solution.  The Color LaserJet 3500 doesn't support duplex.  Of workaround only works for two printing on the package of basic or the Color LaserJet 3600 N.

  • Printing in black and white

    I have a new deskjet 2050 j510.

    I can't find a way to force a color document or a picture to print in black and white. Every other printer I've owned has had this option.  In seeking, someone suggested that HP has removed this option in order to force people to buy the cartrdiges of color more often.  I'm sure that's not really true.  Can you get it someone please let me know how to print in black and white?

    Thank you

    Daniel

    Have you tried grayscale? I don't know if this is what you need, but should be available from devices/printers, right-click on the J510 and click on Printing Preferences, click on the paper/quality tab, click the advanced option, select the grayscale option, and then press the ok button.

    I would like to know if it works.

  • Why my printer prints in black and white in the documents

  • Can I print in black and white with an empty cartridge on a printer HP Officejet Pro 8100?

    Only the cyan cartridge is empty, all the other 3 cartridges are fine. I ordered the cartridge cyan online but I need to print important documents today. The power button blinks when I try to print.

    I do not understand, black and white must not use a color cartridge to print.

    Is there something so I can print before receiving the cyan cartridge?

    The printer Officejet Pro 8100 has the same print mechanism like its counterpart of all-in-One Officejet Pro 8600.  This printer has a print head mechanism that contains 4 individual cartridges: CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black).

    It will replace the cartridge if the unit provides a message from one of the colors being empty, until the unit will resume printing.  This is a retention mechanism to avoid the product from damage.  I hope this helps.

  • E HP Print prints only black and white

    I print from an iPad on a printer Hp 5520, using print e. Hp previously was no problem until recently, it has now stopped printing in color and will be only only printing in black and white.
    If I print using the print on the iPad icon, I am still able to print in color, but I want to use the additional settings available in e print.
    I suspect that it may be to do with my an update of e print or IOS download

    I would appreciate any advice please.

    Hello R0dder5,

    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I see that you do not want to be able to print using all options available in the HP ePrint app for your iPad.

    I'm sure that you already have, but my first suggestion is to check the settings in the HP ePrint app to ensure that it did not retain the setting.   If you choose the color setting is always print in black and white?  If so, please try to uninstall and reinstall the application.  You will have to start the activation process.  I've included the HP ePrint Mobile App FAQ document.  There the steps to uninstall the app, if you need it.

    Please let me know what happens.
