HP Recommended
Product: HP OfficeJet Pro 7740 Wide Format All-in-One Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Cannot print in color anymore.

 

I rebooted.

I uninstalled all HP

Deleted all folders

ReInstalled the whole WEB thing

Then I went to Windows/Control Panel/Harware and Sound/View devices and printers/Printers

My printer is there, Green checkmark because it is the default, right-click for Properties, everything seems fine.

Print a test page, came out in grayscale

Location is weird though

Color Management is mainly for screens, nothing for printers, no settings are there because it is on automatic profile selection. Everything is on System default.

In Printing preferences, it is different.

Printing Shortcuts, never saw this before.

Paper Quality has quality settings but no Color settings, at all. Advanced either.

If it wasn't that I need this for 11x17 drawings, it would be in the garbage

 

Never had so many problem with a printer.

I'm nostalgic about my Epson LX80.

Never had a problem but it died on me.

Different from this one which I want to kill myself.
