As I'm sure you already know, by default, iPadOS uses AirPrint, which offers basic functionality, but often omits deeper settings like color selection, paper size, and quality options unless the app you're printing from supports them directly.


I suggest you install the HP Smart App on your iPad. You can download it from the Apple App Store. This app should provide you access to extended printing features, including color management, paper size, and scanning options.
