Printing Black & White

[Sharon]

I am having problems printing black & white floor plan it keeps coming out like it is printing grayscale. It makes the text and dimensions hard to read. Is there something else I can do to make the text and dimensions more legible? Thanks.

Send and print from a "layout" page and set your printer driver to B & W. You can also print from a "Child Window" in B & W by turning Color off ("Options-Color Off")

Are you using 8.05? Have you turned off the "Color" checkbox on the print dialog?

There was a problem in previous releases of V8 where the program did not always print in Color or in B&W when you checked this box.

I am using v8.0 and the box is unchecked for color when in the print dialog box and I have the color off in Chief.

Would going to Options, Show Items, Select All, Color, and turning the colors all to black solve your situation?

Like Dermot mentioned, make sure you have the most recent patch (8.05). The original release (8.0) had problems printing black and white.
