I have a HP deskjet 940c printer that worked fine under Win 2000. Under
XP, I have two problems:

I cannot set up an icon in Printers and Faxes that will print black and
white. I create a Word doc, type a word in red, and it get printed in
red. With my 2k system, it would be printed in black, unless I chose the
color printer.

Second problem. I print two pages. Page 2 was printed on top of page
one. Wrong order. I want it printed with page 1 as the first page, then
page 2. This is how it worked in Win 2k.

Control Panel (classic view)> Printers and Fax Options: Right click your
printer and select Properties. Set the option to print in black and white
only. And if I'm understanding you correctly, you want "Collate" checked
here as well.
 
Thanks.
Features: Color: Yes
Printing Preferences: B&W.

I guess this is okay. But why does it say Yes for Color?

It tests fine. But how do I know that it is not using the color ribbon to
print black?

I would guess that the yes next to "Features" means the printer is capable
of printing in color. Since the preference is set to black and white that's
what you *should* get.
 
Thanks.
