[daisyrockerdude]

Funny, how Macs are supposed to be all user-friendly, yet people have to refer to how-to youtube videos to print in black and white. =P

[NessaxAC]

thanksss :D

[braziel8]

you're a life saver! thank you for this hidden gem!!!

[lookamused]

THANK YOU. Seriously, I was getting so frustrating (and spending a bunch on ink lol)

[moose5500]

Very cool, thanks for the help. Also, how do you get that little pulsing circle thing around your mouse pointer when you click something? lol.

[AmberliiRenee]

thank you so so much!!! i have been trying to figure this out for weeks now!

[theemeraldflame1]

If you don't have the option that says paper type/quality, choose quality & media instead. the grayscale option is at the bottom.

[shannonwolfmontague]

Thank you!!!!!!!!! I was getting there, then decided to google it. Printing out 25 pages that would have been color.

[U400PCD]

thanks very much that has really helped me save money on colour printing

[JonasBrothersCraZ]

helped me a lot! thanks so much!

[anuragsam2]

Thanks a lot

[dnichols24]

when i click 'grayscale', there is no option for "black ink cartridge only".  bummer. my printer company is a vampire squid.

[cash4medaily]

so i have a bigger problem. Printing was easy but how do you make the printing to ALWAYS default to black and white without having to go through this each and every time I want to print from the web, or email etc. its not defaulting like it does on a PC. help please!!!

[bppadds]

Ok - I'm so glad you did this! It is so simple - but I couldn't figure it out for the longest time!! Thanks!

[ntnyktn1]

Fantastic! As you said, a simple topic, but not as easy to maneuver as it should be. Thanks for the help!!! A perfect tutorial!

[brokenlock037]

this was so helpful! thank youu

[adeadcrow]

Can you set that to be the default setting?

[cristiano3874]

thx soooo much !

[awais110]

thanks man...really helpful

[nickhansbauer]

Thank you so much! This was a huge help and definitely just saved me lots of colored ink while printing this 18 page colored document :-)

[grimjudgement]

[hpkk123]

THANK YOU. Jeez, that took me forever to figure out, (I'm a noobie mac person) so thanks for saving my ink!!

[ivanbravo347]

Thank you ... you the man !!!

[crayzmarc]

Duh!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME FOR YEARS

[imhsn]

btw for those of you using printers with 2/3 black ink cartridges... under grayscale select "black ink only" that will save you on using photo black unnecessarily.

[thekenthia]

[jeroeni22]

Can you only pribt wireless with a mac cus we want to buy one but then we also have to buy a new printer

[BHtechnology]

@jeroeni22 No, you can print wired or wireless.

[fofi17studio]

awesome ! really useful tut !

[xmelancholy]

Thank you so much for this!

[doctortanay]

This video is a great help but there's one more thing to add. If you want to make black & white printing the default, then follow the procedure described in the video, but *before* you press Print, go to the Presets pull down menu in the same print dialog window, and select Save As, and you can save this setting as Black & White or something equally clever. Next time you print, your saved Black & White setting is active. BH dude, thanks and I suggest you add this at the end of your video.

[xboxfreak01]

awesome , thanks!

[rospiltore]

thank you i could not find the option anywhere!

[tdo7125]

I followed your advice and the text were grey! I actually wanted black. How do I print just black from documents with lots of colors?

[JRandorff]

Thanks, this was helpful and very user friendly. Much appreciated! :)

[amehgims]

Thanks! I'd been trying to figure that out forever. :) Should be much simpler/you wouldn't think they would make it so tricky.

[tastyupdate]

Thank you!

[censorshipisthedevil]

Great video! Very helpful : )

[ethanahmad]

thank you very much

[gag160]

Cheers!! I was wondering where this little option was. Great if you need to proof a document prior to printing a nice final copy! Nice work! :D

[annabrain]

Thank you, Thank you!! I didn't have the same box come up, but I knew to look for the printer/quality bar. I had no idea had to get there & you showed me the way!

Thank you, so much!

[patora911]

Thanks. Printing greyscale on a mac can be infuriating.

[Matthew44444444]

Thanks so much for this, it was driving me mad!

[someaussiefella]

Actually I think the options you get might be decided by the printer you choose in the top "Printer" box.. I mean it makes sense that this is related to the drivers you load when you buy your printer.. So because I don't have a HP like you I get different options..

[someaussiefella]

Hi.. is this Snow Leopard? I'm on Leopard and I can't see an option called paper type/quality..

I've got a paper handling and a Quality & Media option, but neither have the disclosure triangle named Color that you show..

[mschwartz311]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!

[lilsprocker]

btw

how did you get that little purple ripple everytime you clicked??

that was so cool!

[BHtechnology]

Thanks! That is a feature of Screenium, my screen recorder.

[Shoppinggirl132]
