Solved: Re: User-defined copy color - HP Support Community

Bruce328 · ‎06-01-2021

I want to copy a black-on-white original document but have the copy print out with red ink. In other words, I want to convert a B/W document to a red/white one. Is this possible with the HP-8620? If so, how?

Thanks!

Unlikely you can do this as a straight copy. You would need to scan into the computer, use paint or other program to change the black parts to red and then print it out.

Your solution worked. I scanned the original as a TIF file, imported to Open Office Draw, selected the entire drawing, and changed color to red. Thanks for the help!
