Hi mojofla,

 

When printing an online document and in the print menu, click Color and change it from Color to Black and White.

Please see the image displayed below.

 

It should be similar for printing word documents etc.

 

Please let me know if this work for you.

What operating system?  In addition to printing in black only through the driver settings you can also remove the color cartridge and print in single cartridge mode as described on page 49 of the manual here.

 

Use single-cartridge mode

 

Use the single-cartridge mode to operate the HP ENVY 5530 series with only one ink cartridge. The single-cartridge mode is initiated when an ink cartridge is removed from the ink cartridge carriage. During single-cartridge mode, the printer can copy documents, copy photos, and print jobs from the computer.
