The easiest way I have found to do a draft copy with WP is to choose
the amiga preferences driver rather than the particular one for your 
printer.

Alternately, they have a printer driver utility so you could copy the
deskjet printer and insert the code for draft mode (check your HP owner's
manual?) and create a new draft-mode deskjet driver.  I did this with the
NEC 2200 driver to enable different fonts.
