    Printing Troubles

    I have a workbook with 3+ worksheets in it. I'm trying to print the entire thing in color. If I check under FILE > Page Setup > Sheet, Print Black and White is UNCHECKED. so far so good.

    My printer defaults to black and white, so I need to change it to color. I do this by selecting FILE > Print, then selecting my printer and pressing PROPERTIES. This brings up the Canon Copier Properties window that shows various printer settings in various tabs. Under the Quality tab I change Black and White to Color.

    This setting ONLY changes the Active Worksheet to color the others stay in Black and white mode. I have to manually change each page to Color to get it to work. If I print without doing this only the first worksheet will be in color.

    I have tried grouping the worksheets before changing the setting but it only changes the setting for the main sheet not the others that were selected along with it. Settings such as Landscape mode work properly but nothing in the Canon Copier properties section does.

    This happens on multiple computers with the latest canon iR C6800 drivers.
    Anyone run into anything similar? what were the solutions?

    I am not famliar with your Canon, but that you select 'your' printer suggests that you have a different default printer. (MS Office programs default to your Windows default printer). If that is not your default perhaps setting the required Canon as the default (Windows) printer will help (it's not a real answer, but it might help you to print colour)
