Q121873
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows, versions 4.0, 4.0a, 4.0c
- Microsoft PowerPoint for Macintosh, version 4.0
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. If you choose these options, the following changes will be made to your slide when it is printed:
Slide Object Black And White Pure Black And White ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Slide background color Prints white Prints white Slide text Prints black Prints black Drawn lines and borders Prints black Prints black Object fills No change Prints white Filled objects w/o outlines No change Black outline added Patterned objects No change Prints black/white Imported graphics No change No change OLE objects No change No change
NOTE: If you are printing to a color printer, the items described as "No Change" will be printed in color. If you are printing to a black and white printer, these items will be printed in grayscale.
MORE INFORMATION
The Black And White option is useful if you want to keep your slide looking as close as possible to the original but you want the background of the slide to be white.
The Pure Black And White option is useful when you want to print draft copies on a color printer or when you want to print very readable speaker's notes or handouts.
