Cant print pictures in color Solved/Closed

Question

Hi,

I'm running with Vista Home Premium.
My problem is that I cannot print pictures, in color, from 'My Pictures' or from 'Windows Live Photo Gallery'. I have gone from the 'control Panel' to 'Printers' and right clicked on my 2400 printer and ran a test page, it worked nicely there. However, when I try to print a color picture it comes out in grayscale.
Is there any setting which left to be made or Is there a problem with my printer?

I installed the HP Universal Print Drivers on my Win 7 system. I found I could print but not in color to an HP 5550. 


I found the resolution:

Go to Printers and Faxes.
Right-click color printer
Click Printer Properties
Choose Device Settings Tab
Scroll to the Bottom of the page
Set Device Type "Color" instead of Autodetect.

Hello,

There is no problem with your printer.
Try this:
When you are in "Pictures"
>right click on a picture
> Print
>"Options" (on the bottom right of that window)
> Color Management
>Advanced Tab
>set everything to "Default".
