I am using a HP PSC 1315 multifunction printer. I am aware that this is
a LIDIL printer which doesn't have advanced features including
automatic colour mapping in firmware.

While printing in Linux using the HPLIP-CUPS driver printer does not
automatically use the black cartridge to print black when printing in
"normal color" or "draft color" mode and so even black text is printed
as blue-grey instead of pure black since it uses only the colour
cartridge.

I have seen this same problem also affect the old HPIJS driver when
used in CUPS.

Is there anything you can do to solve this problem as it is very
annoying to have to print everything in greyscale?

This is a report submitted against a now unsupported version of HPLIP.
During the past 12 years upstream has not responded positively.

It is NOTOURBUG. Closing.
