printer will be black and white copy nbot

I have a HP C4180 printer.  An older printer that I use for my PC.  Simple.  I print B & W only (receipts and emails) and from time to time to do B & W copies.     Recently, a message says, "Remove and check color cartridge."  I have not buy a new color cartridge since I never print photos or color.  However, even now printer will not copy when I break through the B & W copy button.  It still prints B & w in my PC.   How to replace it?

I'd hate to spend $50 for a carton of color just make a dozen copies of each month.

Thank you

Jim

    My HP Officejet 4500 model G510g FPU CB867-64001 stopped black copy.  It print well in black and white and color when it is connected to my G4 Power MAC with OSX 10.4.11.  Also, it copy in color but does not include all black in print.  There is no error message.  There has been no recent system changes.  When you try to copy in black and white, paper feeds ok and looks like it is scanning and printing, but paper comes out of the Virgin.  I don't find any reference to this problem anywhere.

    Hello AHT

  • HP Deskjet 3050: deskjet 3050 does not print the JPG files in color - all other documents are printed only in black and white

    Dear all,

    I have a problem with my Printer 3050 Deskjet. (USB connected with my laptop).

    My printer does not print documents colors in color, but only in black and white (with the exception of JPGs (photographs) which are printed in color.

    Word or PDF documents (for example) are always printed in black and white - even if they are in color.

    Copy of pages in color on my printer is not a problem.

    This works perfectly well. The printer is connected to my PC via USB.

    Cartridges (color and black and white) are practically new and original HP cartridges.

    Could the problem be associated I could have changed by accident print settings.

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

  • 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.

  • in windows photo gallery, print color in black and white photos

    I just bought a hp printer c4640 all-in-one, and now when I print a color photo of the windows photo gallery, it prints in black and white. This printer is a desktop gadget to click and drag a photo to be printed, and if I do that it prints in color. I checked my settings of the printer, and I'm stuck.

    any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    Hello

    This happens usually if the print options or preferences are changed for your printer. To select print options, you must open the image you want to print. Most print options are located in the print dialog box, which you can access on the file menu in the program that you are using. The options that are available to you depend on the program and the printer you use.
     
    To access some options, you may need to click on the link 'Options' or 'Advanced Options' button or tab in the print dialog box. To learn more about the print options for a program, see the information for the program.
     
    Printing options are determined by your printer capabilities are called printing preferences and may include printing separation pages, color or image quality options and Staples. Like program options, printing preferences are displayed in the print dialog box. Look for the buttons labeled "Préférences" or "Properties". You can choose preferences each time you print a picture or preferences to default configuration to use for all the photos you send to a printer.
     
    Try these steps and check the result.
    Step 1: Set the default printing preferences.
    1. Click here to open Printers.
    2 right-click the printer you want to use, and then click Printing Preferences.
    3. Select the preferences you want to use as the default the next time you print to the printer, and then click OK.
     
    Step 2: Use print preview:
    To see what the print will look like before you print it, open the picture in Windows Photo Gallery that offers a preview before printing. Print preview is typically located on the file menu. You can choose the print in preview mode options and then print directly from the preview.
     
    To solve printer problems, download and run the Microsoft fix it and check the result.

    Hi @RogerTheBaws,

    I see by your post that you can't print in color from the computer, but you can print a color test page.
    I can help you.

    Try printing from another application to see if you have the same results.

    Check the application printer settings, to ensure that the levels of gray is always disabled.

  • Photoshop CS5 print color in black and white graphics

    I have Photoshop CS5 12.1 x 64 on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.10.5 with a Canon Pixma MP560 printer. Until a few minutes ago, has been printing very good Photoshop, but now it prints all graphics in black and white color. Before posting this request, I tried the printer on several other applications, including Word, Firefox and Adobe Acrobat, and all are printed correctly. Apparently, I clicked inadvertently something in Photoshop which has not extinguished color printing. I've attached a screenshot of a dialog box print in Photoshop with a simple image two-tone. I hope someone here can help you.
