Trying to color profile this printer/paper and I have to print a target with color managment turned off. The driver doesn't appear to have the option to do so. Any help?

Thank you for joining HP Forums.

It's a pleasure assisting you in finding answers to your technical queries.

 

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

Is the copy working fine?

How is the printer connected? (Wired/wireless)

Are you using genuine HP Ink cartridge?

 

update the printer firmware and Mac software:

Update printer firmware

Update software on Mac 

 

If the copy is not printing color click on this link: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-officejet-pro-6970-all-in-one-printer-series/8289585/model/1... and follow the steps.

 

If the copy is working fine Follow the below steps.

 

Add the printer

Remove the printer queue from the list of printers, and then add it again. Doing so creates a new printing session.

  1. Search the Mac for Print, and then click Print & Fax, Print & Scan, or Printers & Scanners in the list of results.
     

  2. Make sure your Mac is connected to the Internet.

  3. In the Printers list, click your HP printer, and then click the Minus button  to delete it.

  4. Click the Add button .

  5. Find and select the name of your printer from the Printer list, and then click Add to add your printer. Do not select an HP Fax driver.

      note:

    If your printer does not display in the list, make sure the printer is connected, turned on, has power, and is ready to print.

  6. Click Print Using or Use.

  7. Select the name of your printer (if available) or AirPrint.

    Your new printer queue displays in the Printers list in an Idle status .

  8. Try printing again.

Keep me posted, hope this works for you.
