HP officejet 3833
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi. I have just purchased HP officejet 3833 from Amazon. I am using Windows 10, but I am unable to print my photos in colour, each time I use Faststone image viewer or Open Office word document. If I scan a colour document it is in colour. I have reinstalled the printer twice, but it is the same. I go to my images on my PC and click print, there is no option to change from black and white to colour. I have tried everything I can think of, can you help? Thank you.
