SUMMARY
The Print dialog box in PowerPoint gives you two options for black and white printing. These options are called Black AND White, and Pure Black And White, respectively.

You can use the Black And White option for printing your slide as a gray-scale representation of the color version you see on the screen. Or, you can use the Pure Black And White option for printing the entire presentation in black and white only. In other words, all shades of gray are changed to either black or white.



MORE INFORMATION
In PowerPoint 97, you can control how any selected object is printed when using the Black And White option. The following table shows how specific objects are affected when selecting the Black And White option:   Object              Appearance in Black and White View --
