Hi @CMK-W,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

If you can print in color from your phone but not from your Mac with your HP Smart Tank 7600 series printer, here are a few steps you can try.

Check Printer Settings on Mac:

• Open the document you want to print.
• Go to File > Print.
• In the print dialog box, click on Show Details if the details aren't already visible.
• Look for a Color Options or Color dropdown menu and make sure it is set to Color rather than Black & White or Grayscale.

Update Printer Drivers:

• Visit the HP Support website and download the latest driver for your HP Smart Tank 7600 series printer for macOS.
• Install the updated driver and restart your Mac.

Check Printer Preferences:

• Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners.
• Select your HP Smart Tank 7600 series printer from the list on the left.
• Click Options & Supplies, then go to the Driver tab.
• Make sure the driver is up-to-date and configured correctly.

Re-add Printer:

• Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners.
• Select your printer and click the minus sign (-) to remove it.
• Add the printer again by clicking the plus sign (+) and follow the setup instructions.

Check Print Quality Settings:

• Some print settings might override color options. Check the print quality settings within the print dialog to ensure it's not set to a draft or low-quality mode that could be affecting color printing.

Verify Printer Configuration:

• Make sure that the color ink cartridges are properly installed and have enough ink. Even if color printing works from your phone, there could be a specific setting or issue affecting color output from the Mac.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
