How do I set printer Default Settings using HP Utility or some other way.

[Mike_45]

I have an HP Color LaserJet Pro M252dw. My computer is an iMac. I want to configure my printers Default Setting for item HP EasyColor to "Off". I tried doing it using the HP Utility, but there was no way to reset the default value for HP EasyColor.

I am trying to configure the printers Default Settings to Black & White instead of Color.

I don't want to use a print Preset or the options in the Print dialog window to turn the Color off. I want the actual default to be No Color.

I will configure a Preset that has HP EasyColor:On when I want to print something in color.

@Mike_45, Welcome to HP Support Community!

Here is the document HP Color LaserJet, HP PageWide Color, HP OfficeJet Color - Manage color settings you can refer to for help.

Meanwhile, let me also check if there are additional options to set the default on the printer driver.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
