Yes, it's very frustrating, and it is almost certainly the fault of the
printer driver, but so far no printer mfr. has been willing to take
responsibility.

Thank and that worked for my color printer because I have it set up
through a
standard tcp/ip port. However; this solution would not work for network
printers because I cannot access the advanced tab in the properties of the
printer therefore not allowing me to change from spollong to direct. :-(

The only solution I know of to this problem is to disable print spooling
and
print direct to the printer.

I have Win 2000 and I am using Office 2003. When I have a word doc
opened
that includes images (color), I cannot get the image to print as seen
in
print preview or normal view. Once I change the image to grayscale,
the
images are printed normally. When in color ths images print twice and
sometimes 4 times on one page. I am printing to a laser printer.
