Problem

Symptoms: The customer printed a 15-page document to an HP LaserJet III printer, and pages 1-5 printed fine. However, beginning with page 6, the text printed lighter, as if WP was set for draft printing mode. The customer thought that the printer toner might be low, but had the same results when printing the same document to another HP LaserJet III printer. Solutions: After checking Reveal Codes, the customer found a Color Change code for green on page six. After the customer removed the Color Change code, the text printed normally on all pages. How/Why: The HP LaserJet III printer prints text in different shades of gray using the Print Color feature (for WP 5.1, Ctrl-F8, 5; for WP 6.0, Font|Print Color). Yellow, white, and orange do not display on a white background. From lightest to darkest, the colors are as follows: Gray, Green, Magenta, Red, Brown, Blue, Cyan, Black. In WP 6.0 DOS, the best way to tell if a Color Code exists in the document is to use Print Preview, Graphics Mode, or Page Mode. In these modes, the text displays in the color chosen. If the color is white, the text will not appear.
