printing from power point in colour

[sonia]

Hi,

I can't seem to print my powerpoint preentation in colour, when i use a
different printer (it's B&W) it prints everything out fine, but the first
page is the only one to come out on the colour printer, I was wondering if
someone can help me with this problem?

Thanks

Sonia,check all the slides is in “color†status: toggle between color and
black and white, from the View menu, click COLOR/GRAYSCALE» Color, Grayscale
or Pure Black and White . After you have made your selection, the
COLOR/GRAYSCALE button on the toolbar changes appearance to reflect your
choice.
Set the color printer as the default printer,and in the print preview
menu,click option, click COLOR/GRAYSCALE» Color.

Hi
that didn't help at all, it's still only printing the first page on the
colour printer, all the settings were set to what you stated to do, but I
toggled them to give it a bit of a 'jiggle' to see if that would work. Nothing

Sonia, do I understand you right: only one slight is printed on the colour
printer and the other slides will not print at all? Is the colour printer a
printer directly connected to your computer or do you have access over a
network? There could be some problem while printing large presentation over
a network and it could help to print only a few slides and then the next
ones.

And I remember a problem with Powerpoint 2003 which was solved with a
Service Pack for Office. If you have Powerpoint 2003 make sure to have all
Service Packs installed.

Hi,

it did blink for a bit then stop. I press on another slide but it still only
prints out the first page, I manually typed in the pages to print but still
only page one comes out.

Hi Steve

Yea, it only prints page one when I ask it to print a different page. The
hidden slides option is greyed out.

Thanks

Hi sonia,

The hidden slides option is greyed out.

do you have this problem with this presentation only? Or does the printer
print slide 1 from every presentation? I wonder if there are some settings
in the printer options - "print page 1 only"...

Hi

How would I find out those settings? I don't see anything on the print pop
up page to that effect.

Thanks

in the "Print"-Dialog from Powerpoint you can go to the printer-settings.
