The printhead was not cleaned properly: —

If you are using your HP Envy 4520 printer for a long time and you have not cleaned the printhead, the HP 4520 will not print in color. It is recommended to clean the print head manually with the help of a tissue or you can use the HP utility available on the HP Envy printer itself. That will fix the problem once and for all.

The color printing function is not enabled: — Sometimes it happens that when you try to print a color document it comes out in black and white.
