Ron,

it�s always recommended to install the full PostScript workflow.
But this doesn�t guarantee correct colors unless the printer is
calibrated.
a) calibrate monitor
b) create images and vector graphics for a desktop printer or
    a large format printer in RGB
c) print test pages
d) calibrate printer by instruments and appropriate programs
    (expensive and time consuming)
e) if it doesn�t work satisfying with HP software then you will need
    a RIP (raster image processor, a special driver program)

If you are not interested in very accurate colors, then you may
try to find adjustment tools for the three channels (functions
Cout = F(Cin) where C is R,G,B . In Photoshop "Curves", generally
Gradation Functions.

Hope this helps a little.

Best regards --Gernot
