About Printing in Color

Your HP DeskJet 670C Series printer prints in color when a color-capable software program is used with the printing software. Your printer is especially smart about printing color. (That’s why HP called the technology ColorSmart™!) When you print a document in color, the printer marks each element in your document — text and graphics (such as pie charts with solid blocks of color) — and renders each at its vivid best.

To print in color, be sure you have created colored text or pictures within your document, then turn on color printing in your software program. Color printing is typically turned on in your software program’s Print box. By default, the printer software is set for color printing; however, you can print drafts of your color documents in grayscale if you want to save time and ink.

How to Turn Off Color

To economize on the use of the color print cartridge, print draft copies of your color documents in grayscale. Grayscale printing is signiﬁcantly faster than color printing, and it gives you a good approximation of your ﬁnal output. To print in grayscale:

In the HP print settings box (see page 20), click the Setup tab, then click Print in Grayscale.

Print in Grayscale

An “X”means that color is turned off

Updating the Printer Software

HP periodically provides updates of the printer software. These updates may include enhancements that improve the performance of your printer. See Contacting Customer Support on page 61 for how to obtain updated printer software.
