When I right click and select print The Printerknowledge top half is normal the subject heading i.e. Colour Management is normal, The poster on the left hand side is normal but their text is solid black ink with the text just visible underneath. If you print using the dialogue method the message is now black text on a white background, but all spaces between rows is solid black. And so it goes on for each page.

Is this my settings? windows 7 64. Not getting this experience on any other site

I believe printing will be more of a function of the browser and version vs. the OS. Which browsers / version are you on?

I'm on Firefox 23 and don't see a difference between the two print processes and always see black text on white background.

Here is what I get when I print:

I have no problems printing a page from the forum. My printouts are very similar to Nifty's, both from Firefox 25.0.1 and from Internet Explorer 11.0.1 and both when using Files -> Print and when using the traditional commands Crtl+A plus Crtl+P. My OS is Windows 8.1 64 bit.

The problem seems to be related to Google Chrome. I just installed Google Chrome on an old XP computer, and opened this thread in the new browser. This is the print preview:

Good job! I just duplicated this in Chrome too. Let me see if I can figure out a fix.
