Publisher 2003 - Grey bold text printed as black?

[Flemming L. Baerentsen]

Hi,

I have a publisher document using masterpage, color images and text.

In my masterpage I have a text box (company name) with text of formattting:
Times New Roman, 30pt, Bold and gray color R:122 G:122 B:122.

When printing (or print preview) on a non-color printer (HP LaserJet 4SI),
images are gray-scaled but the company name is black. Other text boxes with
non-bold text, print text as gray.

When printing to pdf the company name is gray as supposed to.

Is this because the HP LaserJet 4SI can not handle a bold gray font or?

I look forward to read any answer / comment on this.

Regards
Flemming L. B.

For some reason the LaserJet 4si link on HP's web site is broken. Have you read
their support documents? Somewhere in the past I remember this as a problem, I
can't remember if it was resolved. I had an old LaserJet IIIP, it didn't have
your issue. Of course that is no consolation.
