It would help to answer your query if you supply the following info:

Archicad version and release number
PC or Mac and what version operating system you have
What you are printing to (note printing colour elevations often has unexpected result on a black and white printer )

Also an image extract of the elevation would be useful

Check the sun orientation in the S/E settings, shouldnot be zero otherwise you get dark elevations.

Select the elevation marker and turn off the option for shadows and the option for materials. BTW typing in ALL CAPS is considered shouting.
