Word XP Watermark not printing completely

[Gordon]

I have a plain Word XP document which I add a watermark
to.(Format/Backgroud/Printed Watermark...)
I select "ASAP" as the Text type watermark I want to use and leave all
settings as they were (Semitransparent, diagonal, Auto Size).

When I print this document to my Lexmark 3455 I only get the letters
"S" & "P" showing in there correct positions... the 2 "A"s are
missing! I then tried again and got only one "S", a third time I got
the 2 "A"s but none of the other letters! I then tried another printer
on our network (Ricoh multi-funciton device) and got similar results.

What could be the problem???

Thanks
Gord

My two cents:
put the watermark first and then copy the document on top of it. It works
for me and I hope it works for you too.

I just installed Office Service Packs 1 & 2 and still the same problem

If I uncheck "Semitransparent" it will print ok.
