'Print black grayscale only' not clickable

I have a HP Photosmart 7450. My old PC run Windows XP Pro.  When I've upgraded to a new PC with Windows 7, I can click is no longer on the "Print In Black only in grayscale.  It's is more highlighted.  How can I activate this option.  I want to print pictures of books in black only without the color that crosses.

PC: HP Pavilion

Problem solved! HP 7450 works very well with Windows 7 Home Premium.

  • Vista OfficeJet 6110 do not print black cartridge only (I always get color)

    I can't get my Vista with OfficeJet 6110 to print black cartridge only, that is, I always get COLORS in my impression.

    NOTE: I have the BLUE text in my .odt file and I want to print with just the black cartridge but alaways get BLUE to the exit...

    I hope Bob Headrick reads this...

    What printer driver settings that you use?    I can't install the Officejet 6110 driver, but I tried the following with the Deskjet 6500 driver: in the tab 'Printing shortcuts' select ' Fast/economical printing' in the 'what do you do?"tab.  IN the "Choice of colors" drop-down list select low "on Black Print Cartrdige Only", then apply. For good measure, go to the Advanced tab and enable "text just like Print black" in the tab "Printer features", then apply, OK.

    A similar procedure should give good results with the Officejet 6110.  If this isn't the case, you could install the Deskjet 6500 driver by going to add printer, select local printer, select the USB port the 6110 is on and then select the driver HP Deskjet 6500 Series.  You might have the DEskjet 6500 and Officejet 6110 drivers installed at the same time, they should not come into conflict.

  • My HP Photosmart Plus B210e printer will not print black ink, only gray/color.

    My printer HP Photoshop more faithful 210th has stopped printing in black ink last week. It prints color beautifully, but where there should be black it comes out just as gray or white spot. I have tried two new ink cartridges, cleaned print heads, reinstalled the driver, all to nothing does not. I tried to align the printer, but it gave me a failure message. Need help please, I desperately need to be able to print to school! I have Mac 10.8, so I couldn't do the online troubleshooting.

    -Very well, sounds like you might have clogged or dry print head. What I propose, is that you first use the Tools menu under Setup for clean print heads at least three times. If that does not improve the quality of your print (PQ) or if you already have gift which, I would say that you remove the printhead and clean the back of the cradle with a non fluffy cloth (like a coffee filter) and a little water. The section you want to clean will be triggered copper bumps where the printer makes electrical contact with the print head.

    If this fails, an unconventional way to solve the problem which has worked in the past:

  • How can I print black ink only automatic duplex mode for Officejet 6500?

    When I set the printer to automatically print on both sides, it allows only color or grayscale of high quality as print color options.  If I print on one side, then I have a third option for black ink only.  Does anyone know how to get black ink only when getting both sides to print automatically?

    Sorry, this is not an option.  When printing on the front of a page in duplex black is underprinted with color to make the 'together' impression and dry faster.  Thus "black only" is not an option when you print duplex pages automatically.

  • HP6520 ALL IN ONE PRINTER: BLACK INK WILL NOT PRINT

    I TRIED ALL THE PROPOSED SOLUTIONS.  NO WORK FOR ME.  I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO RUN THE CLEAN CARTRIDGE HEADS.  SAME RESULT (WASTED A LOT OF VERY EXPENSIVE INK IN THE PROCESS).  ANOTHER USER HAS SUGGESTED TO USE SOLVENT TO CLEAN A CLOGGED INKJET PORT.  I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE REPRESENTATIVE HP APPROVED THAT.  THE PAGE OF DIAGNOSIS THAT PRINTS AFTER HAVING CARRIED OUT THE SYSTEMATIC CLEANING HEAD PRINT BLACK TEXT, BUT THE BOX FOR BLACK PRINTING IS TOTALLY WHITE.  IS THERE ANOTHER SOLUTION TO TRY?  Help!

    The printhead on the HP Photosmart 6520 is not designed to be removable by the user.  While you can find messages with information on the withdrawal of the printhead for soaking, it's really not recommended.  If you decide to do this don't forget to read the entire thread, these discussions often end with a printer damaged due to damage or damage to the encoder system, electrical connectors which can make the printer unusable.

    You may have already taken the steps of troubleshooting in the paper here, if not go through each of them in order.  Check the vents on the black print cartridge and that it sits correctly.

    If the above does not solve the problem you could try manually to clean the printhead, as described in the post here for a different but similar printer.

    Note that the printer uses a mixture of color and black inks to print a diagnostic page.  This is so that the information can be read even if black or one or more colors do not work.  Although it may seem from this page your black works that is unfortunately not.  You can simulate this by selecting "Photo paper", as the media type in the driver, it would force the printer to use the same color ink to print black text.

  • Photosmart HP 6520 - printing black ink does not after having been replaced

    I replaced all 4 cartridges in my printer and tried to print a form, but the black ink is not printing. Thinking perhaps that I bought a defective cartridge, I bought another but I'll always have the same problem. It's the first time that I had to replace my cartridges (remained originals in French - printer was purchased in December). I've never had problems before printing. Please help... desperately need my printer to work!

  • 5510 - photos print in black/grayscale only

    Photosmart 5510 model B111A, product #CQ176A - photos do not print in color, everything else done.

    Print pictures of the net or other documents in color, prints hardships are good color.

    Off in grayscale, uninstalled and reinstalled driver, used doctor print but no color photo.

    Material works very well and of good quality.  There must be a switch/something selection part I don't see.

    Any suggestions for the next round?

    @Hev

    I've attached another laptop to the printer, install the driver of all print and 5510 finest kind.

    Then of course, within parameters of Windows device something was wrong on the original PC.

    Found it changed the default values for color, photo, quality, paper, etc. to "custom" even after being selected and applied.

    Went to the top with color management, WCS and Gamut device must have been corrupted by the installation of some programs or a people person.  Managed to return to the default system and works perfectly.

    I still want to know what caused this in the coming days.

    Thank you for your support.

  • Printing black ink only?

    We have just received the all in one printer 3050 wireless. The sole purpose of print from my iPhone. We do not have a computer at home. My husband has a work he sometimes brings home laptop. I figured out how to print in black only using his computer. Is anyway to do this on the printer itself when I print from my iPhone? I went through all the settings on the printer screen, but found nothing. Thanks in advance for your help. I don't want to use the color ink for the things that I do not have too :-)

    Hello Tea77

    You use the HP ePrint home & Biz? Or you use AirPrint and/or a different application on your phone? If you use ePrint you can connect to the ePrint centre and there should be a setting for the grayscale or black and white.

  • Photosmart C620 don't print black... not even with new cartridge

    Have tried everything that your support page & help screens indicate:

    was originally only print up several inches of page

    now does not print any black text

    unplugged

    Diagnostics pages... shows no diagnosis, no black square, the squares of color are very sharp

    test pages are empty

    printer is not installed

    reinstalled printer

    clean the heads

    bought the new black print cartridge

    STILL NO BLACK...

    C6280 has the printhead and ink cartridges that are separated. This resembles the printhead may be bad clogged or has failed.

    I would say try "clean printhead" a few times more, if still no black not printed, the print head may have reached its endoflife.

  • P703w all-in-one printer black ink does not print right.

    When I print a black and white document, only a few impressions, but it's very light.  No words will print at all. I callibrated, cleaned print heads, went out and reinstalled the dell ink cartridges.  I don't know what else to do.

    Hi lionness91,

    White pages or impressions of light can be caused by any of the following reasons:

    • Ink cartridges are not installed.
    • Ink depleted.
    • Failure of the print head.

    Here are some steps we can try in this case:

    1. Reinstall the ink cartridges. If the cartridges do not seem to fit, make sure that the print head is installed and re - install the cartridges again.
    2. Try using a spare cartridges to reproduce the problem. We would be able to locate it to a cartridge impoverished if the replacement cartridge helps you to print correctly.
    3. Load plain paper.
    4. In the printer control panel, press menu .
    5. Press the arrow keys to scroll to maintenance, and press OK.
    6. Press the arrows to scroll to print head deep cleaning, then press on OK. Print a cleaning page.
    7. Press the arrow keys to scroll to align printerand press OK. Print an alignment page.

      Note:
      does not remove the alignment page until printing is complete.
    8. Select a higher print quality in the printer software. To select a better print quality:
      1. Your document open, click file print.
      2. The print dialog box opens.
      3. Click Preferences, Properties, Options, or Setup (depending on the program or operating system).
      4. The Print Options dialog box opens.
      5. On the Print Setup tab, select a higher quality setting.
      6. Reprint the document.
    9. Make sure that the Firmware is updated to the latest version from the link: http://dell.to/13SF1D7
      1. Make sure that you have selected the right operating system before you start to download the firmware.
      2. Print head needs to be removed and the cover must be closed before you upgrade the firmware.
      3. After the update of the firmware, install the print head and try to print.
    10. If the steps above do not resolve the problem, you can consider replacing the print head service kit.
  • How to print the attachment only, not the content in an email using HP ePrint?

    By sending the attachment only, does that mean that nothing in the content of the e-mail and no line of subject?

    Hi FelixC,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I understand that you prefer only attachment to prints by email by sending an e-mail to the e-mail address of your ePrint printer.

    My recommendation would be to follow the message with the subject, but have the body of the email blank. That would allow the setting to be the only thing printed as the subject line is not printed, whether it's content in the body of the email or not.
