Sep 1, 2011 7:06 AM in response to Marleeby japamac,When you choose to print, a print window opens.
In the Print window, under the heading "Presets", there is an option to print in B&W.
Select that, and you won't use any color ink.

Sep 1, 2011 5:54 PM in response to Marleeby Marlee,Japamac,
Thank you for your suggestions but when I went to the preset drop down I did not have an option to change it to black and white. Do you have any further suggestions, please?

Sep 1, 2011 9:43 PM in response to BDAquaby Marlee,Thank you so much!!... I usually can figure these things out quickly!!
Can I use this as a default when I print or do I have to specify this every time I print a document?

Sep 1, 2011 10:01 PM in response to Marleeby BDAqua,Good news, great to hear, not on a Mac with a Printer at the moment, but somewhere in there, there are options to "Use last profile/printer or such, or maybe " Save as Default"
I usually can figure these things out quickly!!
No shame there, they've turned "Printing" onto Rocket science much to my dismay!

Sep 2, 2011 2:09 AM in response to Marleeby japamac,Do you have this brand of printer?
Yes, a HP309a.
That's how I knew that the optiuon was there.....
Did you get it to print B&W?
If so, the last profile setting should get you through the next print job.

Jul 16, 2012 10:39 PM in response to Marleeby McFaith,First time Post user:
I am running OSX and unfortunately there is no paper selection option. Also dont have any printer options to select B&W. Any suggestions from other people?
Please if i may ask respectfully, kindly only respond to the problem if you actually had the same problem and solved it. No sense in making assumtions.

Jul 17, 2012 2:50 AM in response to McFaithby japamac,I'll respond to ask you this; what version of OS X do you have?
There are 8 or so possibilities with differences based on version.
There are also possible exceptions due to print driver variations, so knowing the model of printer might be nice to help someone help you.
