Also noticed in version 1.1.3 as well as 1.9.79.

When printing drawings like
http://www.dvhart.com/~dvhart/oo_bugs/oo_draw_test.odg, where white text is in a
black object, the result non-intuitive in some, and wrong in others, depending
on the print quality setting:

Print Quality        Object          Printer Output
Default              white on black  black square with black text
                     white on gray   gray square with white text

Black and White      white on black  white box with black text
                     white on gray   white box with black text

Gray Scale           white on black  black square with black text
                     white on gray   gray square with black text

Note that here the color gray, #0A0A0A, appears really close to black.  If
"Black and White" is supposed to print in that outline form, perhaps it should
be called "Outline" or "Draft", but if it's called "Black and White" I would
expect white text on a black background to print as displayed.  It also seems
strange that printing in grayscale would convert the white text to black, but
still print it on the near black background.  Lastly, and the most important to
me, is that in both "Default" and "Grayscale" quality settings, the white text
is printed as black on the black background, but is left white when printing on
a really dark gray background.  Seems to me that most users would expect the
"Default" setting to print white text on a black background if that is what they
drew, and the "Black and White" setting to print a black and white image as it's
displayed as well (again, perhaps this setting should just be given a more
accurate name).
