How do I print only in black on a photosmart 7520 with a Mac Pro?

How do I set the Photosmart 7510 to print only in black from my MacBook Pro?

Hi,
Follow the steps below in order to print using Black Ink only:
1. From the application used to print, click the File menu and select Print.
The Print window appears.
NOTE: The Print window might be minimized: Click the blue triangle next to the product model (Mac OS X v10.5 or v10.6) or the Show Details button ( Mac OS X v10.7 Lion or above) to see all available settings.
2. To access the color options, click the lowest selection box listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
3. Select Paper Type/Quality from the drop-down menu.
4. Click the triangle next to Color Options to expend the settings.
5. Set the Color field as Grayscale.
6. Set the Grayscale Mode as Black Ink Cartridge Only.
You may save the settings for future use by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset... any used preset will remain as default till another preset will be used.

Hi picheny. How are you printing from your iPhone. Are you using Apple's built in Airprint or the HP Eprint app? Airprint doesn't seem to have any such option. With Eprint, you can specify.

You can't; there's no Thunderbolt port on a Mac Pro. If you just bought the display, try to swap it for the standard 27" LED display with the mini display port connector (that assumes your Mac Pro is a 3,1 or later, which has a mini display port).

HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier prints only in black/MAC USER & won't align?

PROBLEM # 1) I've replaced all my ink cartridges, but can't find out why my printer is now only printing in black? I'm a MAC user, so I want to print in color, and am trying to find instructions for a MAC on how to get back to printing in color?
ACTION TAKEN #1
UPDATE: I've done a three level cleaning of the printer heads, which DOES print in color and each color block now looks great. The printer heads were not printing any color blocks, but the pink color block, until the first third level cleaning. I then cleaned the printer heads a second time all the way through the third level.
RESULT: However when I print from any document/web page my printer only still prints in black & white after these two printer adjustments double three stage printer cartridge claening?
ACTION TAKEN #2
I found this very detailed report and video on cleaning printer heads, alignment issues, and calibrate line feeds;
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01624398&lc=en&product=3964986&tmp...
The Print Quality Diagnostics Page looks perfect (including the alignment section) in all 3 test patterns, and again prints in color.
RESULT: However, my printer still will not print in color after trying all these steps?
IPROBLEM #2)I 've also tried a align printer which also prints in color, but states, "alignment failed see documentation manual"? To make the situation more complicated the alignment page looks perfect and prints in color before the error message displays.
After puling the power cord twice while ON and wiating 20 seconds, as discussed in the above link. my printer "won't remove the, "align error message see diagnostics manual".
RESULT: Printer "won't remove the, "align error message see diagnostics manual", even though the Printer Diagnostic Pages looks great, and the alignment page as well.
I'm operating a lastest version Macbook Air laptop OS X 10.9.4. I have not upgraded to a new operating system since this problem started a week ago, and Ive owned this HP Printer for 2 years.
UPDATE: ISSUE SOLVED. Well you can imagine when I say that I spent about 2 hours on this yesterday that yea he's right. This took a long time to research and try all these solutions. I told my wife about the issue and had her try:
ACTION TAKEN #3: Print a page from a second computer. Windows laptop printed a colored page from a web site.
SOLUTION: (Printing only in Black Color): Wife literally solved the problem in 3 minutes!
Look below at the presets drop-down arrow tab, which is right below the printer name: You will see PLAIN PAPER, FAST DRAFT, BLACK AN(D WHITE). I'm not sure how I checked this, but this is how you can print only in black ink. NOTE: I looked at dozens of answers across the web, and didn't find this info anywhere else!
This screen shot show you what the setting should be if you want to print in fast draft mode to use the least amount of color ink.

Hi monkplayer,
It looks like your problem is solved? There wasn't a problem with the printer itself, just the printer settings on your Mac?
This is good information though. We don't always have detailed solutions for customers that are using Safari, since it is hard to write instructions for the general public with specific steps for each operating system.
Best of luck,

Thank you.

How to Force PDF to Print Only in Black

I have an old HP 932C that's been working fine until recently. It quit printing blue. Bought a new cartridge and there's no difference. I've run the diagnostics for the printer--fairly primitive and no help. I probably need a new one at this point, but right now I need to print out a form I have in PDF. It's got a lot of blue in it and it prints out this sickly pinkish that just won't work. I'm just looking for a way to "force" this PDF to print only in black. Any tips?
Also I'd love to see any advice about trying get this old printer to print blue again. The print nozzles are contained in the cartridges so changing out the color cartridge gets me new nozzles. I've inspected the electrical contact area of the cartridge holder in the printer and it looks fine.
Thanks,
Steve M.

Or is there some other software that I am missing or that I could add?
It's not in the printer driver, it's part of the OZS/Colorsync/Quartz... been so long I forget, but...
See if in the Print Dialog you have Print settings & an option for grayscale.
B&W is supposed to be a default filter...

C3180 prints only in black on OS X Maverick

Hello guys,
I just bought a new Macbook Pro i7 A1398 and the new OS X Maverick, I can changed my desktop or my laptop but never my (precioussss) printer All-in-One C3180. I just pluged in my Mac and the system recognized it but the printer prints only in black, no colors and bad dpi.
Second despair: I'm very dissapointed that have no Central Solution of HP. It's that true? :-( Newbie on Mac

Hi Fael78RJ,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you have recently upgraded to a MacBook Pro running the new Mavericks 10.9 Operating system. You are not able to print in color with your HP Photosmart C3180, your prints are coming out in black and white only.
Now because you are using the Mavericks OS X you must install the printer using the Apple Updates. Please click on the link below, this document explains how to install the print driver on a Mac for a USB or a network connection. The OS X v10.9 Mavericks driver for your printer is available through Apple Software Update (ASU). Additionally, you can perform basic print jobs using AirPrint without installing a driver.
OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac
Once you have installed the PS C3180, you may notice the features you once had are limited or there are workarounds such as not being able to access the Solution Center (yes I am afraid this is true), for scanning with or without HP Software see below:
How to Scan: OS X v10.9
Are you now printing in color? I hope this helps! Let me know the outcome!

Print only in black ink

HP Photosmart D7100 Printer series.podoshli the end of the yellow and red ink, but you need very urgently to print a document. have the opportunity to transfer print only the black cartridge?

Lilbai wrote:
Bob, thanks for confirming what HP says the printer does and doesn't do. If however, I want to print in pure black, which appears to be an option provided by the printer, does the printer require the use, rather than the presence, of colour ink to print? HP says colour ink will be drawn by the printer when the level of black ink is low but my black ink is half full and I still can't print in black only. Why would any company make a printer whose printheads will be damaged due to the absence of ink in cartridges which are not used in a printing job? I just do not understand. Has HP told consumers in its manuals or on its website the fact that black only printing is not possible without the use or presence of colour ink in these printers?
First, I do not work for or speak for HP, I am simply explaining how printers with separate printheads and ink supplies work. The printheads require fresh ink in each color to prevent clogging of the printheads. The printhead assembly contains both the black and color printheads. Consider a print job that is going to print only black. The color printheads are still being waved about in the air and will dry out and clog unless they are serviced during and after the printing has completed. This servicing requires ink because that is the only fluid available for the printheads. If printing were allowed without any color ink available for servicing the printheads could become clogged to an extent that they require (expensive) replacement. Every company that uses fixed or semipermanant inkjet printheads has similar constraints.
If you need a printer that will allow printing with one or more colors empty or removed then get a printer with the printheads included with the ink supplies. On these devices the printhead is replaced with each new cartridge so it is possible to print with one or more colors missing without risking damage to the printer.

How can I print ONLY the active document?

Whenever I go to File/Print the darn PSE 9 program sends all of the working files in the bin to the printer. I've searched online for 2 hours now looking for an answer.
I like to work with having several to many files in the 'bin' and prefer to only print the active file I'm currently working on without having to close the 'working files' before I can print. How can I print ONLY the active document or file in the project bin? Please help, I've upgraded from PSE 3 to PSE 9 and really like the updated features, but this one pain in the neck default is getting the best of me.

Thanks for your help, that works nicely. It is good to have control of the printer again.

Ah, I see want you mean. This might not be practical for you, but if you select one instance of the highlighted text and add a [space] to the little sticky note, all of the highlighted text on that page will appear in the summary.

Why does 3522 prints only in black and white not in color

How does one print only a highlighted portion of a document?

If the App supports that, it would be in the Print dialog. Otherwise, copy and paste the section into something else to print.
The OS doesn’t render pages to print, the App does. The App must support rendering the selection.
You can create an Automator workflow that automates the copy/paste/print/quit functions.
Just create an new Automator Service and make it look like this:
The text of the Applescript is this:
on run {input, parameters}
     tell application “TextEdit"
          print document of front window
          close document of front window without saving
          quit
     end tell
     return input
end run
