Printing black text only
 

I cannot print text in color or gray. All text shows up normal in the
workbook but gets converted to black when i print and in print preview.
Borders and fills print correctly. Worked fine on my old computer with
the same printer and I tested on another computer which i think has an
older version of excel and it worked right, so i'm pretty sure it's not
a printer setting. Any ideas will help at this point. Thank you.

I suspect that that it is due to Printer Driver setting. However, I am
not sure where the setting is. It sometimes is in the software [Excel
for this case] setup.

Printing black text only
 
If it shows as black and white in Print Preview then it is a setting on
the sheet, not the printer. Go to File | Page Setup | Sheet and uncheck
Black and White, then do Print Preview to see if your colours are
restored.

Hope this helps.
