I have a Microsoft Office program containing Excel, Word and Power Point. I bought the software package years ago and it lists at Microsoft Office 2007.

It has long since not been supported by Microsoft updates but still worked, and I can install on my updated computers since I have the disc and keycode.

I do not use it often, but when needed create spreadsheet calendars, powerpoint presentations word documents using that as opposed to paying for Microsoft 365.

Problem Tried to create new Excel document with color text in some cells and some with color background on cells. Color no longer shows when printing copy. All shows in "gray".

Have a rather new HP inkjet printer with HP ink cartridges (all full) and working for all other requirements. ie printing from internet, photos etc. Tried to print some old Excel Files, Powerpoint, and Word Files, that I had created with color and they also do not work anymore.

I googled the problem and get comments to check the print options and to turn off the option for grayscale printing. But that option is not turned on.

Any suggestions? Reload the 2007 Disc, try on other printers, send to email.

I thought that print options such as grayscale were individually chosen for each document. How could that suddenly change for all EXcel, Powerpoint, and Word Files?

Thoughts,
Thanks,
