I have been unable to get color printing of simple graphs such as
Clear["Global`*"]
Needs["Graphics`Colors`"]
y=x
z=2 x
Plot[{y,z},{x,0,20},
PlotStyle->{{Dashing[{.01}],CMYKColor[0,1,0,0]},{Dashing[{.02}],
CMYKColor[1,0,1,0]}},PlotLegend->{"Y","Z"},LegendShadow->{0,0},
AxesLabel->{"X","Y or Z"},LegendPosition->{.35,-.3},
PlotLabel->"X versus Y and Z",TextStyle->{FontSize->12},
ColorOutput->CMYKColor];
The screen looks fine. But the print out on an EpsonStylus Pro come out
with a variety of problems. It may be all black and white, although the
In[] is in blue. If I replace the CMYKColor with just Blue or Red and
remove the final ColorOutput, then one line is yellow and the other
black. With other variations the legend colors were fine, but the lines
were either black or sometimes one might be yellow or even green!
Have tried various combinations of Presentation versus Working of the
Printing Style Environment etc. Printing of 3d objects works fine.
This is version3.0.0 for Windows 95, (My license is L2201-4833). Running
on a DECXL560 (same problem with a Compaq Presario 3020).Thanks for any
help. Robert M. Lurie, rmlurie at alum.mit.edu, currently running a study
