• How can I make my officejet 6500 a print in black and white only?

  I am trying to print documents, not photos, in black and white.  The computer is a Macbook Air.  I'm looking for the manual, and I don't see how to set up printing black and white document WITHOUT PRINTING FAST current of AIR.

  Thanks a lot for helping me with this.

  I prefer, if possible, to make the default for printing black and white documents (which are not fast drafts). ***

  Hi @presentmomentum,

  Thanks for getting back to me.

  Here's how to adjust the color temperature:

  When you go to print a document, click on "Show details" (next, where it says PDF). Then click on 'TextEdit' and click on 'Type/quality paper.' From there, you can select the grayscale, black and white or color and toggle various levels of quality (Normal, Best project). If you use the grayscale function, you can choose just to use the black cartridge only.

  Let me know if it helps. If I helped you to solve the problem and that you liked this post, feel free to give me virtual accessories by clicking on the "Thumbs Up" icon below by clicking on "Accept as Solution" (this will help others find the solution).

• 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

• HP Photosmart 7350 will not print in black and white

  This camera has served me well for printing color photos and other things for several years.

  Ink is EXPENSIVE, and I have several text documents I want to print. I have several

  56 ink cartridges (black).

  I can simply not a black and white "no photo" to print.

  I tried with the 56 and 57 (beside him) inside AND out. I tried to select in grayscale,

  in all three sub-options (high quality cartridge, black only, optimized for the FAX). Tape

  is NOT yet on the 56 cartridge. I do not use any mode of 'keep the ink' I know.

  The best I can get using the FAX setting optimized (I think) is very pale, a bad quality

  print page - words too dark, I can barely read (light grey). I suspect it is sucking

  the cartridge (cyan-magenta-whatever) 57 to print it.

  I have trouble-shot days before that by typing. I googled this problem both

  in the HP forum and out through Google. What I'm trying to make is so basic and...

  I dare say, 'simple', that I can't believe is not possible.

  Thanks in advance!

  The print head is the rectangular silver part at the bottom of the cartridge on this particular model.  It would seem that the question be electronic printer failed, but before you give up, please try soaking in hot water with one of the printheads. It is possible for the accumulation of ink on the print heads to leave a stain on the fabric during the test, this could be confused with the strong task resulting from a cartridge to work.

• HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515: The printer does not print in black and white

  Whenever I have print using my "Hp Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515' black ink never gets printed.

  Color ink seems to work very well. The cartridge ink levels are really low. It is a problem since I use black and white for documents without photos. When I print something in black, I get everything just a blank page

  

  I ran hp print and scan the doctor but it did not solve my problem, instead, she updated driver for the printer that was not really helpful.

  Hello, abdulmajid13,

  If printing works very well in the beginning, black print cartridge installed, you screenshot, now the black ink is about 20%. But is that the ink level "estimated".

  I recommend you replace the black cartridge. If the problem is still there with a new cartridge installed, you may need to contact customer service, they will help on troubleshooting below.

  Hope this helps your question.

• How to print in black and white only?

  I use a HP officejet 6500 E710n-z.  I only want to use the black ink cartridge.  How can I do this?

  I'm sorry you have a problem with black cartridge only printing. You may NOT use the black cartridge ONLY.

  You can print in black only, but it will always use your cartridge color, a little at a time to mix with blacks.

  Here is a link that I posted, explaining that, in order to print in black, the color cartridges mix to get a true black color.

• OFFICEJET PRO 8600: PRINTING BLACK AND WHITE ONLY

  Printer does not print in black and white only, even if this option has been selected by "Printer properties" or "Printer Preferences".

  Please read this post then provide some details.  There the error messages on the computer screen or the printer?

  The Officejet Pro 8600 series has separate heads for printing and ink supplies.  To protect the print head of damage the printer requires all inks to be present to print in black only.  If one or more of the inks are exhausted, they must be replaced to allow printing.
