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.

    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 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."

  • 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) ?

    To do this, get the smart brush tool out of the tool box, the one with the gears. On the tool's option bar, in the drop-down select reverse effects, and the first effect listed is "turn to b/w in reverse."
    Click on that, then outline the object which is desired in color. Note, you can add to, and subtract from, the selection via the appropriate icons on the tool's option bar.

  • How can I print a colour PDF as a Black and White/?

    Is there a way I can print a PDF with colours as a black and white one?

    Is there a way I can print a PDF with colours as a black and white one?
    Do you mean black and white or do you mean grayscale?
    If you mean grayscale, then the Apple ColorSync Utility lets you build a filter that you apply in the PDF export interface or pick as a prebuilt filter that has already been inserted into the PDF export interface.
    There is a prebuilt filter for the Generic Grayscale Profile or if you build your own filter in the ColorSync Utility with your own ICC package you can determine which level of gray you want and which classes of object you want the filter to apply to.
    Basically, the ColorSync Utility functions as a colour server for PDF. If you know the Apple ColorSync Plugins for Adobe Photoshop 3-4-5, then the colour server functionality of the ColorSync Utility is simply the same thing applied to PDF rather than to raster images only.
    Hope this helps,

    Hi JasperNM,
    You may access a card within the cart reader by mapping a network drive to access it, then you may transfer the fies to your Mac.
    First locate the printer IP address as following:
    Follow these steps to print a Wireless Network Test Report, the IP address will be listed within that report:
    On the control panel, press the Setup button ( ).
    Press the Right Arrow button ( ) to scroll to Network Setup , and then press the OK button.
    Press the OK button to select Print Network Settings .
    Press the Right Arrow button ( ) to scroll to Wireless Test Report , and then press the OK button. The Wireless Network Test Report prints.
    Now map a network driver by following the steps below:
    Click the Finder icon on your Mac.
    Click the Go menu.
    Click on Connect to Server.
    In the Server Address field enter “smb://ipaddress of the printer” and click on Connect.
    You will be prompted to enter the password. leave it as is and click on Connect.
    The Memory card will be mounted as a disk in the Finder.

  • How to colorize parts of a picture in black and white with Aperture?

    Hello, I have a question: How to colorize parts of a picture in black and white with Aperture?

    Use the Black & White Brick and then brush in or brush out.

  • Acrobat 9.31 / Browser Plugin - Printing Color PDF as Black and White?

    I have an interesting issue for the masses. For a couple of our users (it encompasses both Windows XP x64 and Windows 7 x64), they are having an issue where when they attempt to print a PDF directly from Acrobat's browser plugin (in this case, IE8 is the browser), and attempt to print a color PDF to a color printer, the PDF comes out in black and white.
    Here's some other consistents:
    * Printing to a network printer, using the print driver Canon C5180-H1 Ver.2.0JM. The problem spans across two different print servers (we use a different one for XP clients and 7 clients, but the driver is the same)
    * When the user clicks on "Print As Image", it does work (but doesn't look quite as good)
    * When the user saves the PDF to a file and then opens it in the full Acrobat 9 Pro application, it does work (but this is a bit annoying)
    Can anyone suggest some other things I should check and/or reasons that this might be happening? I'm at a total loss to explain it but will happily accept suggestions on ways to fix it.
    Thanks!

    Following up to see if anyone has some solid ideas on how this might be happening.
    Thanks!

  • 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

    Hello,
    Please perform the below mentioned steps that should resolve the issue.
    Press the SETUP ( Wrench tool ) button, then
    Press TOOLS , then 
    Select CLEAN PRINTHEAD and press OK button.

    Check if BLACK is being printed.

  • Isolating a coloured object against Black and White background

    I would like to spice up some wedding videos that I am editing. I would like to be able to convert a clip to black and white and then colour in 1 single item. For example, make a red rose against the black and white. Is this a case of like painting the rose or using a matte to isolate the already coloured rose (ie. its natural colour)?? Pretty new to AE (version 6.5, btw).

    I think Mylenium meant 'Pleasantville', not 'Smallville'.
