Hi! @1KGN1, Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!

I understand you have issues printing in colour from your printer.

Don't worry I'll try to help you out.

Did you make any changes to your printer?

Have you tried printing from a different application? Does the issue persist?

Does the issue persist when you make a copy from your printer?

Have you tried checking with a different ink cartridge?

Try replacing low, empty or defective ink cartridges on your printer.

Check the print settings for your print job in Windows 10, 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista.

In the software application you are trying to print from, click File, and then click Print.
The Print window opens.
Open the Properties dialog box.
Depending on the software application, the button might be Properties, Options, Printer Setup, Printer, or Preferences.
Depending on your print job, you might consider modifying the following settings:
Paper Type: If you are printing on photo paper, select the type of photo paper you are attempting to print on.
Print Quality: If you are dissatisfied with the quality of your printouts, increase the print quality. To print more quickly, decrease the print quality. These options typically include Best, Normal, and Draft modes.
Paper Size: If you are printing on a different size of paper than you normally print on, select the correct paper size.
Black and White: If you want to print in black and white only, select the grayscale option.
After selecting the print settings, click OK to apply the settings, and then click Print.

If you are able to make a colour copy from your printer uninstall and reinstall the printer drivers.

If you are using a windows PC try uninstalling the full feature printer software from root level on your PC and install the full feature printer software.
