Subject:Re: Word '97: Problem printing icons From:Hareesh Kumar K N <hari -at- CISCO -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 23 Sep 1997 11:21:24 +0500
I'd faced the same problem sometime back, while using some Windows Metafile
(.wmf) format graphics.
Once I re-inserted the graphics and it printed correctly. On another
occasion, we set the printer's 'Print in Black & White' option 'on' and
printed. One of these could work for you also. Still do not know why it
happened.
