Has anyone noticed this? I can't believe nobody else has posted on
this, but I seem to have this problem. I have Windows XP Pro with
ClearType turned on, using an NEC LCD1712 flat panel monitor. I have
a recent driver installed for an HP Deskjet 990Cse. The driver is set
to allow color printing.
After pulling up a page with black and white text in Internet
Explorer, I then proceed to print this page. For anyone that's looked
closely at their screen using ClearType, they will notice sub color
pixels illuminated on the edges of text. But are these small color
pixels supposed to appear on the PRINTED page?! Before, color printed
as color and black text as black. Now I get my printer trying to
reproduce EXACTLY what's on the screen with ClearType! Is this
normal?
