So I'm trying to print out some photos (That are in Grayscale) and when It goes over anything white or grey it just prints green. I don't know what's wrong with it cause my cartridges (That contains Black, yellow, blue and some sorta pinkish red) have 3/4s left in em, I use HP smart to print stuff and yes I've turned grayscale on.

@Elizebeth, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Try making a standalone copy in color and check if that prints fine. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.
