MS Office Forum / Excel / Charting / December 2005Data Labels
Excel 2000: The data labels are showing with a white background on a gray plot area. I have formatted the data label background to the same colour of gray but it remains white when I print the chart. I'm obviously doing something wrong. Any suggesions? Connie Hi, What happens if you set the data labels area colour to None rather than the colour of the plot area?

Connie Then maybe David's suggestion (misc NG) regards Black and white print option is more appropriate. > They still print with a white background. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] >>>gray but it remains white when I print the chart. I'm obviously doing >>>something wrong. Any suggesions? Connie SignatureAndy Pope, Microsoft MVP - Excel http://www.andypope.info I want to thank you for trying to resolve this problem. What I discovered is that if I send this chart to print on the colour printer, the labels do not have a white background, but if I send the chart to print on the non-colour printer (HP 6L) it has white background. So, since I have the option, I will print them in colour and be done with it. They don't really need to be in colour because there are only two colours involved and are easily distinguishable in black/white/gray tones. However, I will stick to colour. There must be a problem with the printer. Connie > Then maybe David's suggestion (misc NG) regards Black and white print > option is more appropriate.

It might be worth checking on the suppliers site that you have the latest print drivers. Cheers Andy > I want to thank you for trying to resolve this problem.
