I have use a colour shading to in-fill a cell in a word table. I have set
this to 15% grey, yet when I print, it's printing in pink. Both printer
cartridges are full and I haven't changed any default settings. Does anyone
knwo why or how to correct this please?

In the Printer Properties dialog, set it to print in Black and White, rather
than colour

I'm guessing that your printer uses a composite black (rather than true
black) to print these shades, and you're running out of some colors in the
color cartridge. Doug's suggestion may well work, however.
