[mso] Re: Printing Labels in color in Word

Well...........it is a color printer.............and it will print in
color.  However, I discovered after a few more tries, that I had set
the default to print in grayscale.   I'm so embarrassed.

HOWEVER, in the mean time, I discovered a nice WORD utility from Avery
that allow you to control the fonts and format in more detail.  I
downloaded it and was able to make some nice improvements to my
labels.

Sorry to bother the group with a simple user boo-boo.  I do hope that
someone can use the Avery download info in the future.

Regards,

Chuck

Hmmm...as far as I know, printing in color is not controlled by Word,
but is controlled by your Printer.  Is your printer a color printer?
And, if you look in the printer properties, do you have something set
up there that is telling it to print in black and white?

Are you saying that normal documents print the text in color, but
labels only print in black?  If so, that's way weird. 

So, I guess what I'm asking is, do other documents in word print in
other colors?  If you open a blank document and type one word, then
make it red or something...does that also print in black?

Subject: [mso] Printing Labels in color in Word

I currently have Word 97 and I have been unsuccessful so far in
printing labels (Avery 8160 - 30 labels per page) in color.  Two
questions:

1. Is there a way to print color labels in Word 97?

2. Is it possible to print color labels in later versions of Word

(To be clear, I am looking to have the text print in color, not the
label itself per se)

From my version of Word, you can tell that I don't upgrade software
"just because". To date, I haven't found enough good reasons to do so.
This MIGHT push me over the edge.

Thanks

Chuck
