Can only print in grayscale

[1CTK]

Hi, 

I have a brand new HP 9010 all in one  (replacing an HP 8600 all in one that has given me great service 11+years). 

Problem is the 9010 will only print in gray scale. 

all the set up and reports print in color.  Anything I send to it prints in grayscale.

I have re installed the software and have gone through the system preferences.  I cant see a switch. 

by the way, when I send to the 8600 the print dialog box shows a choice, (Presets) of how you want to print it. color-fine, black and white - draft etc...     This choice does not appear in the 9010 print dialogue box... additionally the printed page displayed turns to gray scale.  

I thinking I am missing a switch somewhere...

I am using a Mac 21" 2017   High Sierra  10.13.6 

Thank you for your help.
