Office Prints Images with Wrong Colour

Hi


I've noticed a recent problem with printing from Office. I have a logo
image (in jpg format) that I've inserted into Word using Insert,
Picture, From File. It looks fine in the document and fine in print
preview.


When I print the red portion of the logo prints blue. I also have the
same image in Excel that also prints blue instead of red. In the same
document/spreadsheet I have red text that prints fine - just the image
prints blue.


I can open the files in OpenOffice and they print in the correct
colours so it's definetley Office that's having a problem.


I don't know much on Office printing so any tips on where to start
troubleshooting would be great. The only thing I've done so far is to
run a repair install, delete normal.dot and check it prints ok from
another app (openoffice).


thanks

Office is more demanding on printer drivers than some other applications. Go to
the manufacturer's web site of you model printer and look around for an updated
driver.

It is always advisable to completely remove a driver before
installing/reinstalling a driver.

Hi

Had a look on the HP website and the drivers installed are the latest. Is
there any reason Office would print different from any other Windows app?

thanks
