HT4356 Can you choose to print B&W vs Color over airprint?

Does anyone have advice on how to print a color doc in B&W? We are printing from emails to a color laser but don't want to waste ink on the drafts of our documents. We receive a substantial amount of layout material and it is always in color. We don't need the color for our purposes. Other than purchasing another printer, I'm curious if there is another solution.

From an iPad? There is no way by default. You may find luck with a paid printing app, but I generally try and avoid those. If you are doing email printing from the Mac let me know and I can help!
You might also check the printer settings itself. Perhaps you can disable color, turning it on from the printer only when needed.

  • Can you choose email address for autofill?

    Hi all,

    Can you choose which email address you would like to autofill when completing a form (that is when you have more than one email address in your address card)?
    Thank you.

    Hello:
    I looked as well and could find nothing specific.  I suspect it picks the first one with no other options, but since I have only one, I cannot say for sure.

  • HT4356 Can you request an airprinter to print landscape?

    I want to Be able to print pictures from Frame Maker on my Canon airprinter but they're not printing properly. How can I control the print set up with my iPad2.

    You can print landscape to an AirPrint printer. I've done it from Numbers and from Maps. The app needs to support it however. You'll probbaly want to request this as a new feature from the FrameMaker creators.

  • How can I choose my printer's rear tray on my MacBook?

    Hello everyone,
    I have something strange going on on my MacBook when it comes to printing...
    I would love to be able to print address labels, photos etc. on actual labels and photo paper using the rear tray of my printer (Canon MG5150). The weird thing is that I cannot for the life of me find the option to choose the rear tray. I have expanded the print dialogue to show all possible options, but there's absolutely no way to choose my printer's paper source. So I'm stuck with the standard cassette, which I do not dare use for anything thicker than normal printing/copying paper. Everything else printer-wise works fine from the MacBook, I just can't select the paper source (regardless which programme I'm working in on the MacBook).
    Something else I've tried is downloading the latest printer driver from Canon. No joy there though, doesn't make a blind bit of difference. I've also tried opening programmes using Rosetta just in case, but that doesn't seem to change anything either.
    My iMac never presented me with this problem; it always let me print from whichever paper source I wanted (using the same Canon printer). Some background info: my MacBook has Mac OS 10.6.8 on it, my iMac Mac OS 10.4. Could it have something to do with the operating system? They are both Intel, aren't they, so why would the options be there on one Mac, but not the other?
    So, where could my menu options have disappeared to?? Have Apple changed their printing dialogues for the worse or something? It seems such a shame I can't use my MacBook to its full potential and have to resort to roundabout ways of being able to do what I want. I'm hoping it's something really obvious, and that someone can help me.
    Thanks for any advice!
    Kind regards,
    Esther

    Hello-
    You can restore network defaults on the printer.
    Press the Setup icon. Then go to Network Menu, scroll down to "restore network defaults".
    This should clear any "Admin" settings that were set.
    Then you can turn radio on and run the wireless wizard to get back on network.
    I hope this helps.

  • HT1430 I would like to share and email pictures from my album in my ipad but I don't see the logo of email. I can only choose FB, print and copy. What happen to my email logo?

    i would like to email pictures from my photo album in ipad but the logo of email is not there to send. I can only choose FB, copy and print. what happen to my email logo?

    I wouldn't want to say exactly, however I would imagine that it has to do with the fact you use the same Apple ID on both devices. Since Facetime was activated on the phone, with the number, and then activated on the iPad with the email and same Apple ID, they are somehow linked. I'm not sure that you can separate it without having a different Apple ID on the two devices. Otherwise you can look at this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3367 and see if that helps you any.

  • Photosmart 7525 Windows 7 How can I choose to print in black only?

    HP Photosmart 7525 All-in-one printer. Windows 7 software.
    Is there a way to choose to print text in black only, even though there may be color on the page? When I choose to print from Microsoft Word, it does not give me an option, and I can't find reference anywhere in instruction manuals. Can someone help me please?

    Hi,
    The are 3 options for Grayscale/Greyscale:
    None (or Off): print in colors (including black )
    High Quality grayscale: mixing all colors to make black & white
    Black Ink Only: Use black in only to print.
    You can set one option as default and change each print job to meet your need. Please use the following steps to set default:
    Double click printer icon on desktop,
    Click Advanced in Paper/Quality tab
    Select the one you want (above list)
    Click Apply/Ok to get out.
    Regards.

  • HT4356 Can't find air printer: Help?

    IPad can't find air printer. Both are connected.

    Without any details all we can do is guess and offer general suggestions. Have you worked through all the troubleshooting steps in the support article from which you came? Confirmed that your printer supports AirPrint? Checked with the printer manufacturer to see if there is any firmware update available/necessary?
    Regards.

  • With different dual monitors can you choose which image to print

    I have dual monitors which I calibrate but they still look different. I have lightroom on the main screen with a full loupe view on monitor 2, I would like to print this image (on monitor 2 ) as its easier to see the changes during develop because its bigger. Is this possible or does lightroom only print the image either on the main screen or in the main lightroom module

    You are only previewing through the monitor profile. It does nothing else in the chain to Print. There's no conversion done between monitor profiles and printer profile, just Lightroom's internal working profile and the printer profile. Photoshop converts between the working profile and the printer profile, again the monitor profile is only applied to what you see on the screen. The actual process of colour matching can never be 100% exact, but can get close under ideal viewing conditions. The screen emits light, whereas the print must be lit, and takes on the colour of the light in the environment. High end printers will viewing stations with with which to determine print accuracy.. a luxury most of us won't.
    In more simpler terms, make the print. Compare it to the monitors under good daylight and gauge from there which is closest to the print.
