Why is my printer NOT printing colour from my new mac?

I downloaded the HP driver, but it didn't seem to do anything.
The test page printed in colour, but no document will print in colour and I don't see an option in settings to print in colour.
And yes it is a newish cartridge, so there is ink in it.
My old mac didn't seem to have a problem with this.
How do I print in colour from my new mac?

Have you installed the driver from the link I posted? Have you set up the printer from System Preferences>Print & Scan selecting your printer? There is a symbol next to your printer which would indicate not.
You do not indicate what OS is running on your MBP.

  • Cant print black from excel for mac 2011 anymore only colour

    I can't print black from excel for mac 2011 anymore only colour. Can print normally from all other programs. Will not work from excel. Will only print colour. Have reinstalled printer drivers with no difference. Brand new mac so should be no font issues. I have to screen print all excel documents to print. Wont work if saved as PDF either. Am looking for suggestions. Have checked all preferences and settings. Tried fine and fast - no difference. Comes out blank. Will only print colour. HELP!

    I have a variation of this same problem.  I maintain a bunch of Microsoft Excel 97-2004 Workbooks.  Some of these documents print in colour (actually a light grey colour), while others print in black ink.  I cannot discern the difference between the documents and why the difference in printing.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance,

  • CS5 prints too light using new Mac, perfect from older Mac?

    Images edited w. Photoshop CS5 (v. 12.03) on a Mac running OS 10.6.8 print perfectly on my Epson Stylus Pro 3880. But the same files printed from a newer Mac running OS 10.7.4 and Photoshop CS5 (v12.1) print too light. Exact same printer settings in PS being used, same printer driver version (reinstalled to make sure not a bad driver), using the same .icc paper profile (also reinstalled), and using same batch of paper printed at same time.
    Where do I start in determining the problem? Epson confirms driver is compatible. Everything else on the new system with PS works great. Gallery show in three weeks, must figure this out quick. Thanks.

    Ps update is 12.0.4 and 12.1, but you are probably missing something, by posting screenshots someone may be able to spot the problem
    are you sure which one is actually wrong
    do they display identical in both OSes
    are both versions of Ps using the same embedded profile, did you confirm that

  • Why will Adobe Acrobat not load PDF from my work website, but will load on other computers?

    Why will Adobe Acrobat not load PDF from my work website, but will load on other computers?  I have to log in to a website to get our orders, and we thought it was the website at first, but have since realized it is just my computer with this issue.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software and still it does not work. 

    You ask "why", but don't provide any information...
    What is your operating system?
    What is your web browser?
    Are you asking about Adobe Reader or Acrobat?
    What is your Reader / Acrobat version?
    What exactly means "will not load"?

  • I just bought a new Mac and I want to transfer some data (not all) from my old Mac.  Basically, I want to move my itunes library, iphoto library, and a few documents.  I have not even turned on my new Mac yet.  Is the best way by an external hard drive?

    If both have Firewire ports then you can accomplish your goal by using Target Disk Mode. If this is not possible then you can do using an external drive or if you have a local network connect both to your network and use filesharing between the two computers.

  • I downloaded the newest version of camera raw for LR. I have LR4 and can not import photos from my new Nikon D750. The download  said it was sucessful but I still can not import photos.

    I downloaded the newest version of camera raw for LR. I have LR4 and can not import photos from my new Nikon D750. The download  said it was sucessful but I still can not import photos.

    Lightroom doesn't use the Camera Raw plug-in. So downloading the latest Camera Raw didn't do anything at all for you. The only way to update or upgrade Lightroom is to obtain the latest version. If you have Lightroom 4 then the last version of Lightroom you can have at no additional cost is Lightroom 4.4.1. If the camera you are using requires anything newer than what is supported and that version of Lightroom then it will require an upgrade to Lightroom 5.

    Hi all,
    I tried a different charger myself (the power source is reliable). But it does not work too. I think I need to bring it down to apple shop.
    But is quite disappointing with the new apple product I have. Cos not only my battery is not charging, my built in speaker, the sound is like broken too. So I can hear some noisy sound when I play music.
    I have a power book G4, and the power book, everything is still in good condition. Imagine how many yrs I have with the power book G4. This power book I never bring to do any services before. I sometimes really suspect is it Apple drop quality
    (cos the office new bought mac from my boss, the USB port is not working too..)
    But thanks all for the reply I think I need to bring it down to apple shop. Thanks!

  • Airplay display keeps breaking up from my new Mac book. Help!

    When using the airplay from my iPhone or iPad the picture and audio works well. No breaking of picture or audio.
    When I try do the same from my new mac book pro the picture and audio keep breaking up, which is very frustrating considerng the new mac should have a better connection then that of older devices.
    I have a Mac book pro with Retina display, 2.6 Ghz, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, OS X 10.9.2.
    Have the latest Apple TV.
    The issue has nothing to do with the router as the same wireless connection is used for the iPhone and iPad.
    Looking for some genuine help..

    WiFi connections will always be flaky and re-liable at best.  Especially with home grade WiFi hardware.  You will save your self a lot of headache if you use Wired connections for the MBP and ATV.
    considerng the new mac should have a better connection then that of older devices.
    Why would that be?  They are all using the same wireless standard, connecting to the same wireless router.  The MBP being a year or two newer does not magically make it's network connection faster just because you think it should be.  
    The issue has nothing to do with the router
    That is in fact exactly what it is.  Or more specifically using WiFi.
    as the same wireless connection is used for the iPhone and iPad.
    No they arn't.  They may all be connecting to the same device, but they each have a serrate connection, on different frequencies, in different locations, that are getting hit with different random levels of background noise and interference.

  • I copied iPhoto library from old Mac to NAS. I cannot access the library from my new Mac

    I've a nice new MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.5) with iPhoto version 9.5.1. I decided to move my iPhoto library from my old MBP (running iPhoto 7.1.5) to a Synology NAS and expected I'd be able to open it from the new Mac.
    I can see the library on the NAS from the new MAC. Unfortunately when I select it using option key on iPhoto launch or trying to open directly from the library in Finder, I end up with iPhoto open and showing "No photos". I've tried using iPhoto Library Manager and this can't select the library either.
    I can open the library on the NAS from my old Mac OK.
    Does anyone have an idea what I'm missing here?

    iPhoto Libraries cannot be located on a NAS driver. Read this Apple document, iPhoto: Issues with FAT32-formatted drives - Apple Support, and note the last sentence of the first paragraph.
    They must be located on a drive formatted OS X Extended (journaled) with ownership set to be ignored (if an external HD).  A NAS is a headless computer with a file system and file access requirements that are not compatible with iPhoto's Library structure.

  • Why dosen't my i-pod sync to my new mac mini?

    Hello everyone - I am sure the answer to this is pretty simple. But then so am I. Hence the request for help.
    I had my i-pod sync'd to an i-mac at my old job. I have since gone freelance and bought a little mac mini to run things from.
    However - when I try to sync from the new mac mini my i-pod isn't found - scan for device dosen't find it. I have tried a reset of i-sync but still nothing.
    Is there something I can do so the new mac 'finds' my i-pod?
    Hope that makes sense.
    Thanks to anyone who can help

    If you are using iTunes 4.8 or later, iSync is not involved in transfering your contact and calendaring records to an iPod - iTunes alone is responsible for this process.
    Setting up to sync your iPod
    If you do not have iTunes 4.8 or later installed on your computer, you can use iSync to transfer the contact and calendar information on your computer to your iPod. Before you can use iSync with your iPod, you need to add your iPod to iSync by following the instructions below. You need to do this only once.
    If you have iTunes 4.8 or later, you use iTunes to transfer contacts and calendars to your iPod. For more information, open iTunes (in your Applications folder), and choose Help > "iTunes and Music Store Help."
    To add your iPod to iSync:
    1. Make sure you have the latest iPod software installed. Choose Apple menu > Software Update to see if there are any iPod software updates available.
    2. Connect your iPod to your computer using the cable provided with your iPod.
    3. Open iSync.
    4. Choose Devices > Add Device, then double-click the iPod in the Add Device window.
    An iPod appears in the iSync window.
