How do I change the settings on my wireless printer?

How do I change my printer's default settings to print in color instead of grayscale?

  • I have an HP Officejet 4315 All-in-one printer. When I go to print something, it is set to print in grayscale, but I want the default to be color. When I click "print" on a program and bring up the print preferences, the box says "Type a new quick set name here" rather than "Default Print Settings." If I change it to "Default Print Settings", it will print in color, but I don't want to have to click & change that all the time. I often forget to change it and end up with a grayscale printed image that I really wanted to be in color. How can I change it so that the "Default Print Settings" actually ARE my deafult print settings when I click "print"?

  • Answer:

    You have to change the setting through Control Panel. START\CONTROL PANEL\PRINTERS and FAXES Right click your printer and choose "Printing Preferences." On the MAIN tab click ADVANCED at the bottom. On the left side of the next screen, clear the check mark by "Black ink Only." APPLY\OK and close. That should do it. Good luck.
