I am in an office and have a b&w laserjet set as my default printer. Whenever
I [print word docs that have excel charts in them to the color printer, they
come out in black and white.

I have discovered that if I change my default printer to be the color
printer it works fine. This is not limited to one machine.

I have XP Pro and Office 2003 and I have reloaded all of the drivers. Any
ideas appreciated.

Hi Jess-

If you have a _linked_ XL file, Word is simply displaying that content in
the doc. The Linked Object, itself, has its' own print specs which have to be
set for the color printer.
