Hi
Do you have an option to print in grayscale?

    HI,
    You should be able to just leave it on, it should have a sleep mode which it will enter after a while.

  • HP Photosmart Premium All-in-one c310a - How to print in black and white

    I want to print a color pdf file in b&w on my HP Photosmart Premium All-in-one c310a printer. When I go to "features" -> color options -> grayscale -> in the drop down box, there is only one choice - "high quality". There's no "black ink only" choice as I have seen in forums on similar printers.

    If you have the full feature drivers installed for this printer and there isn't a Black Ink Only option under Print in Grayscale, then this printer lacks the feature.  Typically the Black Ink Only options follows the drivers for some deskjets and most officejets, because of the office environments they are intended for.  Where as Photosmart printers are more aimed at printing photos.

  • I have an HP C6280 all in one. Can I leave my printer on all the time so it is ready to go?

    Everytime that I am done using my printer I turn it off.  In a nearby business place they have many printers and I was told that they never turn them off, even when the employees go home for the night.  [Same with PC's]  When my printer is turned on it goes through a preperation mode which renders it unusable for several minutes.  Not a really big deal, but I wondered...Does it hurt to leave printers on 24-7 just like PC's?  Thanks, Joe

  • How can I get to the photo tray when using iphoto with HP C6280 all-in-one printer

    How do I get the photo tray option to come up in iphoto from my mac notebook when I have an HP C6280 all-in-one printer

    I have an HP all-in-one C5140.  When I print from iPhoto the dialog that comes up has a "Presets" drop down at the bottom.  One of the choices is "Print from Photo Tray."  Is that there on yours?  If not make sure you have the latest software from HP.

  • Officejet j5780 all-in-one; print in Black only

    I do not require color print capability on my j5780, I want to print in Black only (I also own a Photosmart 6380 for color needs). 
    A new Black cartridge has been installed and the spent tri-color cartridge has been left in-place.
    PROBLEM: The printer's LED window now displays the message "Cartridge error: Cartridge on the left [i.e. tri-color] must be replaced." 
    Prior to replacing the Black cartridge I was able to print in Black only; now, it appears that capability has been lost. I do not want to install a new tri-color cartridge (particularly at HP's price) just to restore Black-only print capability.
    QUESTION: Is it possible to reset, or otherwise over-ride, the printer's color cartridge requirement to in order to achieve Black-only printing?   

    Hello DisgustedOne,
    What may have happened is that while you were printing in black only, the black ink may have ran out, then the printer started using the tri-color cartridge to create black. When the tri-color cartridge ran out, you replaced the black, but are still getting an error to replace the tri-color cartridge.
    Some HP printers allow for what is called backup mode, where the printer only uses one of the two cartridges, an example can be found in the following link:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01625311&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    There are a couple things you can try:
    1. Set the printer to print in black only (can be done in the printer prefs, usually under a grayscale setting)
    2. Take out the color cartridge altogether and see if it will print.
    If both of those options fail, unfortunately, you will need to replace the color cartridge.

  • How do I get my HP Photosmart C6280 All-In-One to scan?

    I have updated to Mac OS 10.9 the driver for my HP Photosmart C6280 All-In-One, but the scanner function no longer works.  The Apple update list shows the update was performed on October 30.
    The printer does not show up in the list of printers as a "Bonjour"  printer, as the instructions from HP's website indicate it should.

    Hi there,
    I understand you're having issues printing/scanning with your Photosmart C6280 since upgrading the 10.9 on your Mac. I would like to help you with this as best I can.
    The reason your having issues is because the HP software you're using is not designed for the 10.9 operating system. The last full software package HP released for the Photosmart C6280 was for 10.6, so the best option at this point would be to use the in operating system drivers.
    To get everything to work properly again, I'm going to link you to how to completely remove the HP software so you can use the Apple software as Sunshyn2005 has described in her post. Once you follow those steps to begin using the Apple software you may not know how to scan using the Apple software and you can learn 3 different ways to do so.
    I hope this helps, have a great weekend!

  • C6280 All in One ink error message

    Hi there,
    I have the HP photosmart C6280 All in One printer that recently requested that I replace the Magenta ink.  I did so but when I attempt to print I get the following message.
    To print in color, instal the following cartridges:
     Magenta
    To print with black only, click black only.  to begin printing on certain products, press the Resume button on the printer control panel.  the printer will replace colors wit grayscale.
    To cancel, press the cancel button on printer.
    If empty ink cartridge is not replaced soon, all printing will stop.
    I have had this issue before and someone told me how to fix it but I can't find the original message or email for it at all but it work fabulous and I think it involved a reset.  Can anyone assist me with this, perhaps explain how to reset the C6280.
    Thank you

    For resetting the printer ink system, try this document:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c01709782&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3194498   
    Removing the ink/power reset procedure can eliminate the cartridge message. 
    For missing colors in the output, try this document:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c01124477&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3194498
    NOTE: step 8 has a hyperlink that is no longer valid. The cleaning of the printheads will affect your color output greatly.
    I hope this will help you.
