Creo Parametric 1.0 Printing Issues using Windows Printer Manager

[DougPurtill]

New install of Creo 1.0 from Wildfire 3.0

In Creo Parametric want to print to a NON-Color printer but our text is yellow on a black background and won't show up on the white paper. Also the hidden lines are almost invisible. See attached .jpg file. Any help would be appreciated greatly!

I noticed that you are not using one of the two "Themes" that come with Creo 1.0 out of the box. What I have found is that if you use a custom theme, the combinations of colors you choose for various elements of the UI will effect how good the print output is.

As a test, why don't you switch to a default color Theme and try to print. Chances are it will print just fine. If this is the case, what you need to do is find the right balance in colors for your custome theme that will give you a good print output. It's a bit of a pain but this may be the only thing you can do.

I wish Creo would offer at least 5 to 10 themes to pick from that are already balanced for good printing output.
