No chart printed

[MORNING BEAUTY]

I'm having a hard time plrinting horizontal bar chart using excel 2007.
Preview shows perfect chart but all the bars are missing in the printing (I
can see only word in the printed chart)

I have clicked "Print in black and While" in the page set up but no bars
printed.

Could somebody help? THANK YOU!!

Does it print if you unselect the Black & White printing option? It
might be that the colour that you have used for your bar translates
into "White".

Hope this helps.

Also try changing printer from Draft to Better quality

Thank you for your comment. But unfortunately it does not work:-( My chart
is made in gray scale and bars are in light and dark gray. Thank you for
your time anyway!

Thank you so much for your time. I had set "Better Qaulity" when I tried.

After trial and error working once again, here are what I found I needed to
do so chart is printed with bars, which I did not have to in 2003 version and
I don't know if this is the requirement in 2007, though.

(This is the case when I created the cart it in gray scaled bars)

1. Click the chart on the work sheet. ( I did not have to do so in
2003!!!)

2. Go to "Print set up", and click the tab "Chart", and then click "Print
in black and white)

2. Go to "Print" and click “Propertiesâ€, select “Paper/Quality†and then
click Black and White.

3. Then print.

The point was the #1 Above. When I printed without selecting the chart even
after setting #2 and #3 above, bars were missing in the print, which is very
strange and did not happen in 2003.

This should not be necessary. Any chance you can send me a sample file (just
omit TRUENORTH. in my email address)
