Default Strange printing behaviour

My HP PhotoSmart printer defaults to "Grayscale." I have to remember
to click "Properties" in the Print dialog every time I open a document
and change the Shortcut setting to "Economical" (or whatever it's
called) and the Color setting to "Color." Maybe Word likes to override
whatever your printer's defaults are, and you have to manually reset
them through "Properties" every time.

I’m experiencing something odd...

I have this document, a job application, ending with a CV. Here i have inserted a picture of me at the buttom of the document, following the CV.

The picture i a full color picture. The text is simple b&w text that has not been manipulated colorwise. The picture however, when printed to my color laser printer, is printed in b&w. This although tha printjob is set to print the document in full color.

If I delete the text, but keep the picture, send the document to be printed without changing the print settings, the picture is printed in full color.
