No color printing with an HP ENY Inspire connected to an iMac OS Ventura 13.5.2. Cannot change the PreSets. In early 2021, I purchased an iMac which has now been upgraded to Ventura 13.5.2. Last week, I purchased an HP ENVY Inspire Photo printer. It will not print in color. I have cleaned heads, changed cartridges, changed paper - nothing works. The only options in the default settings are black and white, and black and white - draft.

HP Printer doesn't print in color from my MacBook Air I set up my new hp printer and when I try to print from my Macbook Air, the print dialog box does not offer an option to select 'color'; it only offers the choice of printing b&w. When I look at the print preview, it shows the preview in b&w even if the item to be printed is in full color on my screen. However, If I place a color document on the glass printer table, it will copy in color. These are new ink cartridges. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Thank you for your offer to help. This morning I deleted my printer and reinstalled it. I'm up and running again!

Can you provide a photo or screenshot of the Print screen where your printer's options are shown?
