Text colors and printing
I cannot get my colored text to print properly. I have text in my
spreadsheet colored light grey, but it prints out black. I did some tests to try to identify where the problem was. It is not a printer setting, because I can print grey text just fine with other programs (I tested with Word) using the same printer settings. The "Black and White" check box is not checked. Colored backgrounds of cells print out correctly, it is only text which has the problem. Any color of text prints out black, except white colored text, which prints (or rather doesn't print) exactly as it should. I know this is probably some hidden setting I'm not aware of. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks! |

Text colors and printing
There is no hidden setting in Excel that would cause your described problem to
occur AFAIK. If you had "Draft Quailty" checked I would expect to see no background color either but worth a look. Other than that............can't think of anything outside a printer issue which you have discounted.
