Sorry about that Rusty,
Actually what I'm getting looks a lot like the ink tanks are running dry. But
really they're not. There's plently of ink in them. In Kmail the email
addresses and URL's are a pastel blue in color, these don't print at all. And
in spots where it should be printing black colored text it prints a very pale
blue. You can barely see it. Red prints ok. I've got colors turned on in
Kmail.
When I print something from Konqueror the color is waty off. Yellow is almost
white...what should be green isn't and some colors don't print at all.
I'm inclined to assume that it's the drivers or the lack of printer support
for manner in which I'm telling the machine to print. But I've also noticed
that even then I tell the program to print in greyscale it still prints in
color, or at least it tries to.
