How do I change my HP printer from printing black to color?

First, read your instructions online or in hard copy. Remove the black cartridges from your printer and go to your store and by the color cartridges recommend for your printer. Be sure to save the serial numbers. That way when they need replacing you will know what to reorder.How do I change my HP printer from printing black to color?

If yes, you need to go to the properties tab of the printer %26amp; select the option to print in color.

Will a hp printer work in a dell computer?

I want to get a new printer. I really like this hp all in one thing but will it work in my dell computer?Will a hp printer work in a dell computer?
Yes. As long as you have the printer drivers (should be on the cd that came with the printer itself) installed and a usb cord for the printer to connect to the cpu.





You can also go the http://www.hp.com website to download the proper drivers (universal ones).Will a hp printer work in a dell computer?
Hardware-wise, should work fine as long as the interface is USB or parallel. (I assume most or all retail PCs still come with a parallel port.) Operating system may make a difference, if you are running something other than Windows XP.
How old is your computer, what operating system and does it have 2.0 USB
Yes
As long as it is compatible with your PC it will work. If the salesperson says it would be a waste of money, it probably is not compatible. They want to sell stuff remember!!! Email Dell support and ask if you don't believe the salesperson.
Sure - my PC is connected to one right now.
Yes, you may need to download the drivers but even that is unlikely if you are using WinXP. Should just plug and play.
It basically depends on the operating system. As long as you are running Windows 98 SE or something newer, it should work just fine.
Any kind of printer will work with your Dell computer
Sure it will

What the hell is wrong with my HP printer ?

I have HP Photosmart C3188 All-in-one printer.


The problem is whenever I switch on my printer, it start printing the ';Cartridge Alignment Page';. I hope you know what it is.


This was not like this before I got a new cartridge.





After printing the page, all goes fine.





So what should I do ?What the hell is wrong with my HP printer ?
I have an HP Deskjet F-340 that does the exact same thing - it is annoying, isn't it - I think HP has a lot of room for improvement in areas such as this.





Anyway, every time I replace one or both of my Inkjet cartridges - in order for the stupid HP printer to stop printing the alinement page every time, I have to ';Align the Cartridges';:





HP Solution Center [Software]


Settings


Print Settings


Printer Toolbox


Align The Print Cartridges.





This should work - it does here.





Good Luck,

    you don't deserve my help If you had a history of choosing best answer I would have given you a very clear and thoughtful answer. However, since you don't take the time to choose best answer or no best answer and instead decide to leave your questions up to the voters you don't deserve my time . Thanks for the easy 2 points!How do I use OCR on my HP printer?
    Depends on what program came with the printer that does Optical Character Recognition (OCR).





    Sometimes, people will only install the print drivers from the disk they get with their printer. Make sure you install the program that does the OCR.





    After that, open the program, import the image and be on your way.
    OCR - Optical Character Recognition.





    OCR is not a function of your printer, but a function of your scanner. It is how well your scanner can recognize the printed or written characters. This varies by scanner and the scanning software included with your scanner.





    With that said, your printer should include two type faces known as OCR-A and OCR-B. Supposedly, but not always, these typefaces are easier for scanners to recognize. (e.g.: Currently I am having difficulties @ my work with OCR-A off of a Samsung printer, but not a Lexmark.)

    I wouldn't take a chance on killing a new printer over a few bucks worth of old ink.
    Refilling VOIDS warranty, so BEWARE





    Also CANON and HP may not use same ink, so may actually DAMAGE HEADS





    If you MUST refill them, get a proper kit designed for HPs wthat has ink of right consistency
