Can my product be set up to print in black by default instead of color?
-
Yes. The printer supports the Color Management setting Advanced B&W Photo, which lets you print high-quality black-and-white photos. This setting is available if a Photo Black or Matte Black ink cartridge is installed and you select a compatible media type and print quality setting.
Note: If you plan to switch the black ink cartridge from one type to another, switch the cartridge before you open your printing software. If you open an image in software and then switch the black ink cartridge, the printer driver may display invalid settings.
The following tables show when the Advanced B&W Photo setting is supported:Matte Black (T054820) Paper Print Quality Double-Sided Matte Paper Best Photo Enhanced Matte Paper Best Photo Matte Paper-Heavyweight Best Photo UltraSmooth Fine Art Paper Best Photo Velvet Fine Art Paper Best Photo Photo Watercolor Paper-Radiant White Best Photo Photo
