change font style of printer

[Nardi1]

How can I change the font style of my printer?  The default style consumes too much ink and I have to change ink cartridges too often, which is expensive.  I would like to find another font style that handles this problem.

Hi @Nardi1,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

Try these steps:

Select a Font with Lower Ink Usage: Some fonts use less ink than others. Fonts like Arial, Century Gothic, and Ecofont are known to be more ink-efficient.

Adjust Font Settings in Software:

• Open the document in your preferred application (such as Microsoft Word).
• Highlight the text you would like to change.
• Go to the font settings in the toolbar.
• Select a font style that is known for lower ink usage. Arial or Ecofont are good choices.
• Click "OK" to apply the changes.

Print Settings:

• Before printing, select "Print" from the application menu.
• Make sure to go to "Printer Properties."
• Choose a draft or grayscale mode if available. These modes use less ink while printing.

Use the Font on All Documents: If you frequently print documents, consider setting the ink-efficient font as your default font in your document templates.

I hope this helps.
