Not quite "every type of score element" -- you can't color stems separately from note heads, you can't color G separate from Ab in the same layer, there are lots of things that can't be colored separately, which is what the original poster was asking about.

I'm afraid so. I have a few scores that I've never rendered in Finale
because of this problem. The best I could do was set the color and use a
screen capture. Yup, this is a low-priority item, but it would be nice if
there were a toggle between Finale display colors and printing colors -- if
Finale had a way of entering a graphics mode. Sometime in the distant
future....


How about right now? Under Options > Program Options > Display Colors you can change the colors for every type of score element. Then, in the Print dialog box (on the "Finale 2003" page, as opposed to the "General" page, on a Mac) you can check "print display colors." This has been in Finale for several versions now. I've done it from Windows as well; there is just a "print display colors" checkbox on the main Print dialog, if I remember correctly.
