Solid White bitmap Prints Gray

[Bill Mc]

I have inserted a 1-bit B&W bitmap into Word2002. The
image is black text on a solid white canvas. But once
pasted into Word, the white prints with a very fine
dithered pattern simulating a grey background for the
image. I increased the view to 500% to see if there is in
fact information there to print, but I can see anything.
It's just black and white. Anyone know how to eliminate
this so solid white remains solid white when printing?
I'm using a Postscript printer if this

G'day "Bill Mc" <[email protected]>,

is your application window background color for your desktop pure
white?
