Managing color

Setting color options to Automatic will typically produce the best possible print quality for color documents. However, there may be cases when you want to print a color document in grayscale (black and white) or wish to change one of the printer’s color options.

zUsing Windows, print in grayscale or change the color options using settings found on the Color tab in the printer driver.

zUsing a Macintosh computer, print in grayscale or change the color options using the Color Matching pop-up menu in the Print dialog box.

Print in Grayscale

Selecting the Print in Grayscale option from the printer driver prints a document in black and white. This option is useful for previewing preliminary copies of slides and hardcopy output, or for printing color documents that will be photocopied or faxed.
