Introduction Media & Ink Solutions Front-Panel Printer Options Other Page Format Image Appearance Page Size in the FrontPanel Print Management Printing Images in Grayscale Index Printer Configuration There are times when you may want to print a color image in grayscale because it is faster. Examples of this are: You want a draft where color is not important, for example to check that the image is not going to be clipped. You want a version for photocopying in black and white. Grayscale printing renders colors as grayscales rather than all colors as black. If you want all colors to be printed as black, then you should set all your colors to black in your software. For example, if supported in your software, use a pen number that is 100% black. Alternatively, you could make one of the printer's internal palettes (A or B) all black, and then select this as the current palette (see Pen Widths and Colors in the Internal Palettes in this section for an explanation of palettes). NOTE: You cannot change the color/grayscale setting for pages already in the printer's queue. NOTE: HP-GL/2 drivers may override this setting. 5000PS The Palette Settings do not affect PostScript files.
