Managing printer color options on Macintosh computers

Setting the color options to Automatic typically produces the best possible print quality for the most common printing requirements. However, for some documents, setting the color options manually can enhance the way the document appears. Examples of these documents include marketing brochures that contain many images or documents that are printed on a media type that is not listed in the printer driver.

Print color as gray or change the color options by using the Printer Features and Color Options 2 pop-up menu in the Print dialog box.
