HP Envy 6000 printer currently has double sided color printing as default settings. would like to change to single sided, black white as default settings so I don't have to choose these options before every print job. No other issues everything works great.
Thank you,
Lily

Hi @LilyPad47,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I understand you want to change the printing present to print only on a single side on your HP ENVY 6000 All-in-One Printer series. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.
You have to change the settings on your Mac PC. Please follow the below steps:
- Open a document which you woruld like to print
- Click on File and select print or press ⌘ + P
- You will see the print dialog box
- Now click on the dropdown icon and make sure you select your printer ( if selected ignore this step)
- NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.
- Make sure you uncheck the Two-Sided option and select black and white as default as per your requirement
- You may save the settings as a preset by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset
- By doing so and completing the print job these settings will remain default till another preset will be used in the future.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
