@rickeisner, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.
I see that the printer is not printing in color from the Mac. To assist you better,
- Which application are you trying to print from?
- Have you tried printing different types of documents like PDF, Word, or Webpages and check if the issue persists?
Update the printer firmware
Click here to download and install the latest printer firmware from your Mac.
Click here to know different methods of updating printer firmware.
Also, check for any software updates on Mac
Click the Apple icon > About This Mac > Software Update and install any available update.
Check the print settings on the Mac
Click on 'Presets' below the printer name and set it to color if it is black and white.
Open a document, photo, or webpage, click File > Print to open the Print window.
Make sure your printer is selected, and then click Show Details if it displays to access the print settings available for your printer.
Make sure the Black and White box is not checked.
