HP 452M is set up for RBG Color but Toners is CMYK

greentalk · ‎03-07-2023

I have a HP 452M and the print software is RGB color' however the toner kit is CMYK. It doesn't really print accurately as compared to an inkjet. Is there a way to download other software that I can choose that the printer print in cmyk?

The screen shot below is from the HP Universal Post Script driver and it offers both RGM and CMYK options, although this screenshot is from the install for a much more advanced printer than you have so I cannot guarantee you will see the same options but costs nothing to try. Keep in mind that your screen is RGB color so printing in RGB gives you the best chance of having color that is anywhere close to what you are expecting.
