Important

  • Some applications will print in color regardless of the Grayscale Printing settings. If you want to perform monochrome printing with these applications, set Print With to Black Only.
  • If you have the FINE cartridge (sold separately) attached, and you have the following settings configured, the printer will print using color ink, and checking Black Only will have no effect.
    • Media Type other than Plain Paper, Envelope, Ink Jet Hagaki (A), Hagaki (A), or Hagaki is selected on the Main tab
  • Do not detach the print head that is not in use. Printing cannot be performed while either print head is detached.
