Color

Color

(OP)
Whenever I try to print out of AutoCad none of my line colors show up so on a big drawing it gets kind of confusing, because it's in all black. I can print color in Internet Explorer or Microsoft Word and stuff like that, even in Inventor, but not AutoCad, everyone else in the office can print in color. I can use their computers, but they can't be using it and all, so it's kind of annoying. I've tried changing color options and all, I even went in to the printers/faxes thing to try and fix it there to no avail. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

RE: Color

do you have the print set on monchrome.ctb??

RE: Color

Hi,

which ACAD-version are you running?
Plotpreview ok?
Do you work with *.ctb or *.stb?

Ha, my name's Joe. No, it's set for color printing, but we have network printers also, and I can't print in color on anyone else's printer either
