In Excel, colored text is printing in black. Shaded cells are ok?
 

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.

In Excel, colored text is printing in black. Shaded cells are ok?
 

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

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

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 -

Yes, We did not check the Draft quality under Black and white. We tried to
print in Xerox color also.

I also have the same problem. My computer support has been trying to two
days to figure it out. The print preview shows black and white, and text
prints in black and white, but cell background color and jpeg images that are
inserted into the spreadsheet will print in color. We are about to
re-install Office from the cd to see if this fixes the problem.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

thanks

I'm having the same trouble. There was an 8/17/08 reply by "pf" to an
earlier post (5/12/08) by "Mike" entitled "Can not print in Color". In his
reply "pf" noted that switching the printer to Adobe then back to the desired
printer fixed the problem for "pf". I just tried it, and it worked. Still
no word on the cause or long-term solution. Good luck.

Writer printer. Even if I have save this pdf or cancel it, then I have choose
my original printer. The text is still in black.

I don't know if you resolved this but I had the same problem and found the

from Microsoft:
