Hi @quadmania,

Thanks for stopping by the HP forums. Good day! 🙂 I reviewed the post about printing in black or grayscale from your printer. It will be a delight to assist you here. 🙂

For better clarity and to assist you better let me gather some information here.

·         Did you try to check printing preferences to see if you could change them to print in grayscale?

For starters please try the steps mentioned in this link: http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Officejet-Pro-8600-e-All-in-One-Printer-series---N9/4322916/m...  and follow the steps mentioned in the option “Print only black for all your print jobs” This should do the trick for you.
