To clarify ...
The drawing views are set to Shaded or Shaded with edges mode, and appear correctly when the sheet is viewed, but when printed the views do not show colours or even grey shades?

Does the Print Preview show correctly?

[cheers]
 
ya that was the case , but it was in the printing settings, it is fixed now , thank you so much
