Why won't my IMac print color pages from my HP 2755e printer

My IMac won't print in color from my HP 2755e printer. It only prints in black ink and doesn't give me a color option

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 11.2

Your Mac just sends the signal to the printer, the printer interprets the signal based on settings in its driver/printer settings. Have you maybe selected only to print in grayscale, or similar terminology for black only, in the printer panel when its presents?


If no, have you updated your printer's driver lately? If not, search HP's website for a later version. https://support.hp.com/ie-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-deskjet-2700e-all-in-one-series/2100187844/model/2100187846
