HP OfficeJet 3830 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have had this problem for months.  HP says printer is working fine and test page is good.  When I go to print color pictures or documents in prints in black and white.  I no longer can even choose color printing on print menu.  So frustrating.  This printer worked great for awhile.

The workaround could also work for your specific HP printer. If it is the case, thanks to give feedback.
