Ricoh spc410 B&W priority

[Butrus]

Hi,

have set default seting to black and white
But only when colour PDF files are printed switches itself automaticly to Colour
All other file types are printed in b&w

Can this be changed?

Thanx!

Are you using full Acrobat or Adobe Reader? Also what version(s)?

Re: Ricoh spc410 B&W priority

Adobe reader X

Re: Ricoh spc410 B&W priority

Colleagues have no idea. Try to print via Foxit reader.Or using PCL6 driver what happens

Re: Ricoh spc410 B&W priority

If it's the latest version of the Reader, it can override the defaults set in the driver. Try double checking all of its settings. I had an issue where Adobe's settings were printing files duplex, even though single sided was set in the driver.

Sounds like you may be running into something similar

Where in Adobe Reader X are those settings?
I searched but with no success...
Thanx

Re: Ricoh spc410 B&W priority

OK,
I knew that...

I want this printer to print in B&W as a priority all document files
Not to print all document files in B&W and only PDFs in colour as a defoult

Re: Ricoh spc410 B&W priority

When you go to the print preverances in the driver properties, you must set it to B/W and "apply" otherwise the settings will not take place, you could also look at the page setup and see what it was setup for as default!

Hope it helps
