How do I set my product's software to print only in Black or Grayscale from Windows or my Mac?

• Open a document, then follow the steps below for your operating system to select Black/Grayscale or Grayscale in the printer driver.

  Note: The information below applies only to the Standard Epson printer software.

  Note: To keep the print head clear and ready to print, the printer uses a small amount of ink from all the cartridges whenever it prints. Even if you select Black/Grayscale or Grayscale, some color ink is still being used. Black/Grayscale or Grayscale is not recommended for printing black-and-white photos.

  Note: If your product displays a message instructing you to replace an expended ink cartridge, you need to replace the cartridge before you can print.
