Printer doesn't print in color

[achetzu]

Hello,
I am trying to print in color but I get black and white. When trying to print from smart HP software, I choose color from "more settings" but it keeps reverting to monochrome.
I have already reinstalled a clean instance of drivers and no success. 
However the printer prints copies in color and documents from smartphone.
I have a feeling that it is OS fault but cannot figure out what

Thank you!

@achetzu, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

I understand you are not able to print in color from your Win PC. Install the printer using the TCP/IP port to resolve this issue:

1. On the PC, go to Control panel > Devices and printers > Add a printer(at the top) 
2. Under 'Choose a device or printer', click on 'The printer I want isn't listed'.
3. Select 'Add a printer using a TCP/IP address'
4. Find the IP address of the printer by tapping on the wireless/ethernet icon on the printer screen
5. Type in the 'IP address in Hostname or IP address' box, click next
6. Proceed to the next steps by following the on-screen instructions.
7. Try printing in color.

If the issue persists, Install the printer using Windows built-in driver

Refer to this document to know how. Try printing.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
