Grayscale printing from Excel 2002

[Lan]

Hello,
How can I print text document in grayscale mode from Excel 2002. I'm using
Black and white Lazer Printer. I'm try to check Back and White option in
Excel Page setup or look at printer driver for grayscale mode but not
successfully. Every page I printed are black text even I set to light gray or
yellow or green color.

Can you help me? This function is very important for me.

Hi,

The page http://experts.about.com/q/Excel-1059/Dear-Jessica-Thank.ht
suggests that you:

1) Click on File on the top menu, then select Page Setup.
2) Click on the Sheet tab.
3) Make sure that 'Black and White' under Print is NOT selected.
4) Click OK and check out the Print Preview again

- so make sure Black & White is NOT selected.

Thanks for your help. I tested with some different kinds of printers and
surprised that with some old printers like HP Lazer 4100 can print grayscale
but some new as HP Lazer 4350n can't. Eventhough I did as your direction:
"Black & White not selected" and try to setup driver with different version .
That's followed printer version also? Why new printer can't do as the old one?
