How do I set my default print to be grayscale (NOT full color)

I have an HP LaserJet CM1415fnw printer on a wireless network at home. We have a mac, macbook and 2 windows based computers. I do not want the printer to automatically print everything in color. How do I set the default to grayscale or black ink only? I have looked everywhere!!
Thank you!!

One will need to have the full software installed on each computer to get this functionality.
To set greyscale:
* Open the Printing Preferences for the CM1410 driver that installs for this printer
* Select the Color tab at the top
* Click the Print in Greyscale check box
* Save the options and attempt a print
Let me know how this goes.

Hi,
Try saving your settings as a Preset by clicking the Preset drop down and then select Save Current Settings as a Preset.
Next try changing the settings by selecting the saved preset.
That allow saving the settings for a specific printer, I assume it may also allow selecting these settings for another printer.

I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

How can I set a default for webpages to expand to full screen?

How can I set a default for webpages to expand to full screen? Every webpage I go to does not expand to a full screen which causes me to have to ctrl+++ each time. How can I set my preference to expand to full screen automatically?
Thanks.

The Firefox [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom Page Zoom] feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox, as with some other browsers.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

Or the NoSquint extension: <br />

How do I set the default printer to pdf in Firefox 8?

Wish to set default printer to PDF, in specific folder.
Always tries to print to .ps in my home folder.
Using Linux, Fedora 16. I have had the same problem in Fedora 14.

Mark, there's a very basic .NET method on every nullable object:
GetValueOrDefault
EDIT: Now I see...please avoid duplicating
questions...
To be clear:
Put GetValueOrDefault on every nullable field used inside your 'TotalDue_Compute' sub
You don't need to define 'TotalDue' as Nullable anymore

How do I set the default print pref to fast draft on a Photosmart C410 w/o using a PC?

I have a Photosmart C410 for printing from my iPad. I want to set the print preference to print "fast draft" instead of the "normal" default. Can I do this from the printer itself rather than from a PC connected to the printer?

Hi ngrammes!
If you are using AirPrint (printing directly from the iPad) there is unfortunately no way to change the print settings at this time. AirPrint is a fairly new service of Apple's that our printer's support and they may add more features with newer versions of the iOS.
Let me know if this helps!

In the same way you can check the default printer for an existing report.

Hi @darshan9 ,
I see that you are experiencing issues setting the default printer for users and you are unable to print over the network.
I would be happy to help you.
Do you mean individual computers setup with the printer over the network users or one computer with multiple users?
Do you have Admin Rights on the computer to make changes?
What is the full name and product number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. http://www.hp.com/go/tools>Using HP Diagnostic Tools for HP Printers in Windows.
I would suggest you to check if you have a different user account or from an administration account.
I would also suggest you to create a new user account and check if you are able to set the printer as default.
Create a user account. Create a user account.
If you are still having issues run the Fixit Tool. Diagnose and fix printer and printing problems automatically.
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
Have a nice day!

How do I set up my printer to only print in black?

how do I set up my printer to only print in black?

Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? What operating system? Depending on your printer model you might remove the color cartridge, forcing black only printing, or select "Print in Grayscale" and "Black ink only" in the driver.
Some printer models (whether from HP or other manufacturers) may not allow printing in black if the color inks are empty. There are also some other constraints, black only printing is generally not available when printing on photo papers and may not be available when printing with an automatic two-sided duplexer.
