Default Excel cant print in color

I have an Excel 2003 spreadsheet with areas that have been assigned colors.
The colors show on the screen the way I expect. However, I can not get this
one file to print in color. Other files print correctly. I have looked
under file - page setup - sheet tab and made sure black and white is NOT
selected, but still no luck. I have also reloaded the printer drivers.

any help would be appreciated.

John,
have you checked your printer properties to make sure no one turned off the
color there?

John

Can you see the colors when in Print Preview mode?

If not.......How about unchecking "Draft Quality" on SetupSheet?
