How best to print a color photo in black and white

I use the Black and White adjustment on a series of colour photo's I've taken.  However when I go to print the photo's, colour still comes out in the print.  Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

It might be a problem with your printer's color profile. Did you try to set the color profile in the print dialogue to "black and white" (choose: "more options" in the print panel) ?

    OK, but still, they built the poorly made HP drivers in their OS.
    Ah, no. They published the only drivers HP gave them. If they didn't publish them, then Mac users would be unable to use HP devices at all, except for those devices supported by 3rd parties such as Gutenprint and the HPIJS Project. HP is solely responsible for the state of their drivers. And it's not just Mac drivers which are bad; a lot of Windows drivers stink, too. HP simply has a problem writing drivers. For the most part they have excellent hardware, but truly terrible software.

  • How do I print a colour PDF in black and white

    How do I print a colour PDF in black and white.

    Thanks for that, unfortunately a) I'm a Mac user and b) I've already ticked the grayscale box in the print dialogue box and it seems to ignore or override the instruction and still print in colour. I've been in to the advanced instructions and tried a couple of different settings there but still no luck.

  • How to re-save a color PDF as black and white

    It seems to me I was able to do this with a previous version of Acrobat, but so much has changed with the interface, I couldn't find where to do this in Acrobat X.
    I originally created a color document in InDesign and exported it as a PDF to send to the printer.
    Next thing I know, they needed it quickly changed to black and white.
    I would have saved a lot of time if I could have found how to do it from Acrobat rather than having to change everything in InDesign.

    If you mean converting color to grayscale, you can do this in the Print Production tools in Acrobat Pro (not available in Acrobat Standard). To make the Print Production tools available, click the small menu at the upper right of the Tools pane and select Print Production.
    You can either use the Color Colors tool and convert to a grayscale profile. Or you can use the Preflight tool and select the Single Fixup "Convert Color to Grayscale."

  • My c5180 will print in color but not black and white

    I can't print in black and white with my HP Photosmart C5180 all in one. I put in a new cartage and it still only print in color without black ink. I've tried all the buttons in HP Print and Scan Doctor but I don't know what it is that I should like at. So I can't tell if it fixed it or not. Should any of them have black in it. I've tried uninstall and reinstall the drivers that did not work. When I use HP solution center I used the “align the print head” the box form left to right blue, red, and yellow all are light in color and the four is brown. Can anyone help

  • Lightroom changes color photos to black and white error

    When I import NEF files into LR, they initially display as Colour, then during the render process, LR changes them to black and white. It has never down this in the past, is there a reson why LR is doing this now? The photos are colour (as shown in Capture NX and Windows explorer), and during importing, I selected 'None' for the develop setting. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thank You :-)
    Particulars: Lightroom 2, Files: NEF (Nikon D300),OS: Windows XP Pro

    Thanks Jao, much appreciated...I must of changed the develop setting...now that I recall, I did go into the Develop->Set Default Settings recently. The reset resolved the issue.
    Thank You...CK

  • Not able to choose to print in color instead of Black and white

    Good afternoon!
    I have a HP photosmart 5510e and i am running a windows 8.1. I am trying to print some photos but i am unable to have them print in color. I have looked all through the settings on the printer but i dont get an option to change it

    Hi,
    It sounds like your printer is operating in grey scale mode. I've included a screen shot below of what the grey scale/colour toggle looks like on my Windows 7 setup.
    You can check that you have the most recent Windows 8 drivers here

  • PSE 8: Color Tinting from Black and White Photo

    Basically, the title says it all.  Can someone tell me how to add areas of color in a black and white photo for PSE 8?
    I really appreciate it.

    Using Hue Saturation won't colorize my whole picture?  What if I just want to color a hat?  I mean, I know about hue/saturation and I know how to colorize.  But, how do you do it for something specific within that picture and leaving the rest black and white?
    Select what you want to colorize and then apply the colorization methods. You might want to first feather the selection 1 or 2 px to get a soft edge. As to Barbara's first method (painting on a blank layer with Color blend mode), the color tends to be washed out. If you want a deeper color, duplicate the layer and set its blend mode to Multiply; if the result is too dark then lower the duplicate layer's Opacity.

  • How to determine actual colors in a black and white photo?

    I'm not sure if I'm in the right section, but I'm wondering if it's possible to use an Adobe program to restore actual colors in a black and white photo? I don't want add color by imagining or guessing; I need to determine the real colors. This might not even be possible, but if it is, please tell me what I can use.
    Thank you.

    That's where the artistry comes into play when they colorize old movies.
    A lady wears a nice dress:  is it greeen or purple?  It looks gray.
    A baby comes home from the hospital cute new baby clothes: pink or blue?  They look light gray.
    That's a nice school tie that guy's wearing: use the wrong colors on the stripes, and he's at a different school.  But they're nothing more than varying shades of gray.
    If there's one thing missing in a B&W photograph, it's any vestige of color information.   All you have is gray scale.   You may NEED to determine the real colors, but without a color photograph to use as a reference image, you're out of luck.

  • Adding color to a black and white photo

    I've searched everywhere on here and on Youtube and can't seem to find how I can add color to a black and white photo using Aperture 3 that was taken in black and white.

    Hi, and welcome to the list. Make sure you read the [Help & Terms of Use|http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa] section when you get a chance.
    It's not a good idea to insert a new question into someone else's post. First as you are not the originator of the post you can not assign solved or helpful ratings to any answers you get here. And the forum really relies on those to help other users locate meaningful responses.
    Secondly your question is less likely to get answered. readers of the post will be looking to either give advice on the original question or else be looking for answers to the question. A new question stuck in between the other replies is less likely to be noticed. It's always best to start a new thread and if something in another post applies you can always link to it.
    Now to your question. There was a great solution given to your very problem back a little while ago, see: [Topic : Black, white, and color?|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12805425&#12805425]

  • Bringing out colors on a black and white photos

    I just got Photoshop elements 11 for Xmas. I've been attempting to have a single color or object colored in a black and white picture. I have gotten as far as making a duplicate layer and then creating a mask but don't know where to go from here. How do you do this and is there an easier way to do this?

    For a colored original, get out the smart brush (the one with the gears on it), choose a black and white style from the popout menu in the tool options, turn on the Inverse checkbox, and drag over the object you want in color. The rest of the photo will turn black and white. The smart brush creates an editable layer mask, so no need to make one before you start.
    For a black and white original, select the area you want to colorize, then Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Hue/Saturation, turn on the colorize checkbox and adjust the sliders to get the shade you want.

    In Aperture how do you add a touch of color to a black and white photo?

    easiest way is to spend $1.99 on Color Splash Studio from the App store.
    Can you confirm that Color Splash Studio allows one to _add_ a hue to a grayscale image?  I asked their support, and got this answer which seems to say that one cannot add hues other than sepia or blue (cyanotype simulation is my guess) to grayscale images:
    Regarding your questions: the app can add hue in color photography, but when in grayscale mode, you can adjust brightness, contrast, blur and amount. Also, our monochrome layers include grayscale, sepia and blue tone, so you can choose.
