I'm trying to set up my users (who are using Windows XP) to NOT be able to use the color cartridges in our HP Printer - i.e. I only want them to be able to print in black.

i assume the printer does not work without the colour cartridges? if it doesn't then the only thing I can suggest is setting the default to B&W and setting permissions to disallow access to printer settings. it can be done on NT and 2000 but im not sure on XP im afraid!
