My printer will not print in color. In the print menus it looks like it is printing in color but there is not a tab to select greyscale or color. The test page prints in color - that is it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled drivers multiple times. there is not

@jpauls, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I understand you are not able to print in color from your Win 10 PC, let us try these steps:
Install the printer using the TCP/IP port:
- On the PC, go to Control panel > Devices and printers > Add a printer(at the top)
- Under 'Choose a device or printer', click on 'The printer I want isn't listed'.
- Select 'Add a printer using a TCP/IP address'
- Find the IP address of the printer by tapping on the wireless/ethernet icon on the printer screen
- Type in the 'IP address in Hostname or IP address' box, click next
- Proceed to the next steps by following the on-screen instructions.
- Try printing in color.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Follow below version of the HP Print and Scan Doctor Utility by selecting your printer:

Be sure to restart your PC and allow the utility to complete the process, then check for any difference. If the issue persists, proceed to the next step.
Install the printer using Windows built-in driver
