When printing a crystal report they have a headder that prints out all black.
It used to be Black with white lettering but now it is all black. Also the
text that does print is fuzzy.
If, while printing, they go to Advanced Settings and choose another print
driver it works fine.
If I perform the reg hack below some of the icons are grainy\blotchy but the
headder is fine and there is no fuzziness. I am thinking that they can just
deal with this.
Since the UPD is not configurable I do not see how the issue could be fixed
unless we tried to change the way the reports print which I am told is not an
option.

Has anyone even bothered to ask what the problem was anyway? Maybe it could
have been fixed without hacking out drivers.
