Printer printing unwanted background

[Happy Camper]

Each time I print (HPOffice jet model 600) be it pictures or a word document, I have a grey fill in, in the unused space. How do you get rid of this. Waste of ink as well as looking bad. TIA

Control panel click printers, click your printer then click printer again in the upper left corner. Now click properties and you will be able to adjust the background.

Thanks Illflem. I key into the area and look at all the options but do not find anything referring to background. I will wander in the different areas and see what I can come up with.

THANKS! IT WORKED. I was looking for a too simple subject, like background printing.

While you are on the internet - hit "tools" "Internet options" and then advanced - scroll down to printing and uncheck the part that says "print backgrounds and images" that will do it. .

Ddesau! Thanks, I unchecked it. Little things can drive you nuts while you can ignore the big things. Have a good evening.
