I cannot find an option to print only in black or grayscale.

I always had the option to print in "grayscale" or "black/white" or "color" in Firefox with Windows 8.1 and lower versions. Now with my new Windows 10 and the newest version of Firefox.........I can only print in color. Even the "advanced" tab in the "properties" will not give me that option. I cannot afford to print everything in color...........i need help!

The color / grayscale toggle is provided by the printer software. You might want to check with the printer manufacturers website or their support fora / help desk for support with your question.

I have printed with gray scale forever and just did with windows 8.1. I now have windows 10 and the new Mozilla Firefox. I have always used Firefox, but now when I open "properties" in my print box, a different set of stuff comes up and gray scale or black/white is just not available. It is like there is no option except default to print in color.
