six4rm,
Is your Sharp a color printer also?
I'm having trouble with the Excel 2010 to stick to the color settings that server and even the user set manually.
After googling for a while I found it's a known issue if using the shared printer. Ugh!!
It's really annoying. Word, Outlook and Publishers are fine I think. It will take the default settings from the print server but not excel.
So the user has to manually pick color every time she wants to print in color. Like it won't stick even if she's re-print the same doc.
Do you have this same problems in your environment?
Another that the users are complaining since we're using a shared printer from the print server, it's performing really slow when trying to open the printer properties so I'm just keep adding it up to my pain list. Lol.
