Default Shades of Grey

I am trying to create a bar chart with black and shades of grey. The black
prints as a medium grey and a light grey prints as white.

Is this an Excel problem or a printer problem?

I would say it was a printer problem - have you go the printer set to 'draft'
as that makes black a light gray.

Try changing it to an image setting and see if that changes the shades of gray

John,

I appreciate your attempt to help, but nothing I do with the printer helps
the situation.

Please take a look at "Grey Text not Printing" posted on 2/23/2007.
Evidently, I'm not the only one experiencing the problem.
