Any ideas?
Cheers

On B&W printers, its usually invisible.

194931 2003-11-27 03:58:00 As Godfather has suggested yellow shading prints very lightly when printing black and white but try and make it as light a yellow as possible, not the bright yellow shade. About 50% shading normally does the trick for me. Susan B (19)

Cheers
