How do I set up my product to print only Black or Grayscale from Windows or my Mac?

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

  Note: To keep the printhead 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 used. Black/Grayscale or Grayscale is not recommended for printing black-and-white photos.
