How to print in draft mode on laserjetpro CM1415fnw color printer.

Hi, i have a laserjetpro CM1415fnw color printer, how do i print in draft mode to save my black ink?

Hi REMAX2011,
The only other option I can see which might do what you are looking for is on the Services tab.
1. Printer Properties
2. Services tab
3. Device services, and then click on Device and Supplies Status
4. Click the System tab
5. Click on Print Density
6. Adjust Black density till you get what you are looking for.

  • Print in Draft mode

    I am printing to a network printer on my [Windows] home network. I am trying to print in "Draft" mode. In Windows, the print dialog allows me to choose the various quality options for my HP printer (Draft, Normal, Presentation, etc.). When printing from my MacBook, I do not get any of these options. Anything I print is sent in NORMAL which is slow and wastes ink for basic everyday documents. On the Windows machine that the printer is connected to, the default print settings are set to "Draft" mode, but anything sent from the Mac prints in Normal anyway. Can anyone help me remedy this? Thanks.

    If you are using a printer (e.g. HP) that has an Economode (powersaver) setting, leave this off. Otherwise, your prints will look washed out as though toner was depleted.
    Since Pages itself does not have a selectable “draft” mode, the focus will be on your printer hardware and configuration.

  • How do I print in draft mode on Epson Workforce 3540

    I just bought and set up an Epson Workforce all in one printer.  Everything is working fine, except that I can't get it to print in draft mode.
    I've tried a few different applications and all are the same.  When I go to print, I get a window that includes a print quality slider at the bottom that includes three settings: draft, normal, and best.  The word "draft" is grayed-out.  If I try to drag the slider to it, it snaps back to normal in the middle.
    I looked in the printer's manual, and it says draft mode can only be selected with "plain paper" selected.  But, even when I have plain paper selected, I cannot choose draft quality.  In fact, it seems no matter what I try I cannot choose draft quality.
    The printer's owner's manual, it also shows some printer dialog windows that I don't get (I think I did get them with the Epson I just replaced, though).
    Can anyone tell me how I can select draft print quality, and why I'm having so many problems doing so?  Maybe it's to be expected that the Epson isn't letting me select the print mode quality that would save me the most ink.
    I'm attaching a screen capture of what I see when I try to print.  It is the first image.
    I'm also attaching a couple of screen captures from the printer's owner's manual section on Mac printing.  These are the printer dialog windows I don't see when I try to print.
    What I see when I try to print (note that "Draft" is grayed-out on the quality slider):
    These are what the printer's manual seems to suggest I should see (and what I think I did see with my last Epson printer that I just replaced):
    And:

    Based on your screen captures I believe you may have selected Apple's AirPrint driver rather than the Epson driver. This can happen if you add the printer by selecting it from the small pop-up window that appears with a heading of Nearby Printers after you click the plus button in the Print & Scan preference pane.
    To confirm which printer driver you are using, open the Print & Scan preference pane and select the Epson in the Printers colum. The right pane will give some details about the printer. If there is mention of AirPrint in the printer Name or Kind, then this will be the issue. The fix would be to remove this printer from Print & Scan and add again. But this time, don't select the Epson from the Nearby Printers pop-up. Instead, click on Add Printer Or Scanner from this pop-up window and from the next Default Add printer window, select the Epson in the list and ensure you select the Epson driver in the Use menu rather than the AirPrint driver.

    Hi buretax,
    were they using the same printer?
    Have you tried uninstalling the printer and using the current software from this link.

  • How can I set default printer options on an iMac for an HP pro 8500 printer to print in draft mode?

    How can I set default printer options on an iMac for an HP pro 8500 printer to print in draft mode?

    When you use the Canon driver, the 2 sided printing is set in a different location. There is an entire menu dedicated to it (at least on my mx892). The printer dialog box has a menu selector in the middle of the screen (I think it says "layout" by default). If you click on it, you will see the duplexing options at the bottom. Much more flexibility than the single checkbox available with "airprint". The interface is unusual (at least for me) but you can pre-set up many different configurations (Fast Duplex, Fine Single-sided, B&W, Photo, etc etc.)

  • How do I get draft mode on HP Officejet 4500?

    How do I get draft mode with an HP Officejet, 4500 other than in text edit?

    Hi sdtvghjyctu,
    Here are the steps to register your printer with ePrint and get the printers email ID.
    1. Connect the printer to a wifi network with internet connectivity.
    2. Let the printer fetch the IP address.
    3. Click on the ePrint Icon on the printer and continue with the process of registration.
    4. The printer will guide you through the rest of the process.
    5. An Information sheet will be printed at the end of the process which will contain the code.
    6. The Code followed by @hpeprint.com will be your printers email ID.
    Claiming your printer in eprintcenter or HPConnected will enable you to secure your printer, add apps and many other features.
    I hope this helps.
    Kind Regards,
    Oliver

  • Deskjet 1050 All-in-One J410e can not print in draft mode.

    I wanted to print in Draft mode (300x300 dpi).  I went to Avanced Options to adjust the resolution, but the drop down menu says "The following is for informational purposes only. Clicking on anything in this list will not change your Print Quality setting."
    I was also unable to select Draft mode in the Preferences>Paper/Quality tab.  Normal is automatically selected and the other options (Best, Draft, Custom) are grayed out. 
    What can I do to print in Draft mode (300x300 dpi)?

  • Printing in draft mode from Windows

    I locked the com.apple.print.custompresets.plist file so that my printer always use my Draft preset. On Mac OS X, everything is fine but the problem is when I print from my Windows PC (which is in my home network).
    To make the printer work on Windows, I followed the steps on this tutorial:
    http://www.ifelix.net/tech/3012.html
    As the author notes, I used the Apple drivers since my printer isn't post script.
    The printer is working from Windows, but since I'm not using the HP driver, I can't set the printer to draft mode.
    Any ideas?

    Well, you're right, I couldn't get it to work, either (sorry it took so long, I had to wait until I got home to try).
    But I can get it to work by setting up a RAW queue on my Mac (which allows me to use the correct model driver on the PC). RAW means the Mac just acts as a print server and passes the input to the output - without filtering/translating.

  • Printing in Draft Mode Printing

    The tip I received to use the Canon MP800 SP2 color profile, as present in the printing module improved the print reproduction quality.
    However I had to conclude that the color reproduction (too redish) varies strongly among the photos I printed.
    To my surprise when I selected 'Draft Mode Printing' I got the best print reproduction ever! I understood that Draft mode printing uses the cached previews or if necessary the built-in previews, which seems to be acceptable when the photos are small (from Scott Kelby's Lightroom Book).
    I am tempted to print in Draft, to finally solve my LR' print repro problem, but would like to understand whether this an option?
    Thank you for your advise!

  • How to print in draft mode with Canon MX432

    I am unable to choose draft mode when I print. I can view it, but it is greyed out. My only options are "normal" and "best". I have contacted Canon and they say it is not a Canon issue and rather a setting that needs to be done on my iMac. I am currently running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  I have tried the print dialog box, settings and the printer web page. Still no solution. 
    Here is a pic of the dialog box in Safari. I have tried Word, Adobe, etc. They all have draft similarly greyed out.
    I would appreciate any suggestions of fixes for this issue.
    Thanks!

  • Web Application- Printing in draft mode

    From JSP, I need to print a document in draft mode to local machine. I used the below code for doing the same. The report is getting printed to the server machine. I want the report to be printed in client machine (i.e if the printed is attached to client machine, report should get printed else message should be given as no printer attached).
    InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
    DocFlavor myFormat = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
    Doc myDoc = new SimpleDoc(is, myFormat, null);
    PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
    aset.add(new Copies(1));
    aset.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A4);
    PrintService services = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
    System.out.println("services" + services.getName());
    DocPrintJob job = services.createPrintJob();
    job.print(myDoc, aset);

    JSP code executes on the server, not the client. It is meant for dynamically generating HTML pages based on code it executes on the server side. You are not using the right technology for your goal.
