Default Print Preview shows in Grayscale - Excel 2003

I have a spreadsheet that is completely set to Color, however, when I print
Preview the file it shows in GrayScale and when I print to the color Printer
it shows in Prints in GrayScale as well. I had my co-worker print the same
file from his machine and it does not show up in GrayScale and it does not
print in GrayScale.

Is there a setting to make all files with color show and print in Color?

Thanks,

I would suggest you check the settings of the printer driver on your
computer. It may have been set to print in grayscale.

try this, File / page setup / options
somewhere on those tabs there is probably a color/grayscale setting

Default Print Preview in grayscale

I just had a similar problem. The reason was that I had just set up fax and fax prints in grayscale. When I changed the default printer back to my deskjet, the preview was in color again.
