Images set as background not printing out

hi,

we've got a problem with powerpoint 2000,

whenever an image is set as a background, under Format, Background, Fill
Effects, Picture, Select Picture

the background does not print out, however i can get the image to print out
if i do 'Insert', 'Picture'

i don't think this is a print driver problem as i have updated the driver on
2 different PCs, and tried printing to 2 different printers, a HP laserjet
5M and a HP 8150

any suggestions

thanks
bryan

Bryan,

If you use the Format, Background, Fill Effects, Picture, Select Picture
Then it's normal for powerpoint not to print the background.

If you do insert picture from file then it will print.

If you want to control how it will print on a black and white
printer....then
View menu
black and white
right click image and choose B&W
Then choose from the settings..e.g. grayscale, inverse, light grayscale,
auto, don't show etc
