Frustrating Problem printing in color
I have a frustrating problem. I have a Brother MFC-J615W printer, I use Chrome browser, run Windows 7. Printer works fine, Sometimes my workplace emails me pages that I need to print & they come out in color ok. But...when i try to print color things from the internet (chrome) it always prints black & white. Also i use Openoffice for typing documents & when i set the font to another color it shows that color on the screen ok, but still only prints in black. I've set every option I see on the printer, and on my Print Preview page, and in Openoffice to "color"...but problem still continues. Would SURE appreciate some help solving this! Thanks.

In OpenOffice /Tools /Options /OpenOffice : Print, check that "Convert colors to greyscale" is not checked.
Also, in /Tools /Options /OpenOffice Writer : Print, check that "Print text in black" is not checked. There may be a similar setting for the Options entry for each of the OO applications and you should check each.
Options is under Preferences on a Mac.

My colour printers work in colour from all applications, including OO; I can think of no other settings that might be involved.

I know. Its an odd thing. Might it be a printer setting? or a chrome setting? or a windows setting?

What files are the pages? html? PDF? .doc?jargey3000 wrote:Sometimes my workplace emails me pages that I need to print & they come out in color ok.
W10 sometimes installs the wrong printer drivers. Go to the Brother website and download and install the printer driver.
Download and print test.odt and test.PDF
Google for a solution - eg see Webpage in Chrome won’t print in color on Brother MFC-9120CN
