Hi all,
so this is the story; I'm trying to make the hp DesignJet 800ps use black cartridge only since we're going to use it for black and white.
The plotter is on a network that 200 users can use it, so I want it to kinda force it to only print black & white,
and I also have another question, does anyone know if it's possible to set up an admin password on this plotter? so no one else can change the settings on it.
Thanks for taking the time to help me!

Printer's can't print "white", white is just where no printing is done, no ink is laid down.

What you mean is "grayscale", so look in the printer driver preferences for the "grayscale only" option.

However, bear in mind that the other colours will need have healthy (ie not empty) cartridges in place or the printer won't work, even though you're not using those colours.
