I don't have the option for "Draft Quality". I'm printing to a color printer
(Xerox machine) and the Color box has been checked (print function). If I
convert this document to Adobe, it prints in the correct color, however I
cannot get it to print out of Excel correctly. (where the text itself is in
color). Thanks -

Have you unchecked "Draft Quality" just below "Black and White"?

I got the same problem. Text only only print in black color and show in
preview black. Tried your suggestion but it still did not work...

Check these:
1) File | Page Setup; open Sheet tab; look for Print .. Black & White
(middle, left of dialog)
2) File | Print ; open printer properties and see if you have set it to
print in greyscale

I have colored text in my Excel spreadsheet, however it will not print in
color. The shaded cells print ok and I'm only printing one spreadsheet on
one tab (not a group of worksheets). Even print preview is in black and
white.
