I have a problem printing a grayscale pictures (shadowstudy) from plotmaker. I have bitmap pictures that were rendered in ArchiCAD and imported into PM. Theu look great on the schreen, but when I print, I only get B&W drawing. If i print the same pictures from the original file they come out right.
What am I doing wrong???
I have gone over te printer settings and cannot find anything there, it is the same printer that prints later grayscale from the otiginal.

Please help.

The only thing I can think of is that you have "All Colors to Black" selected in the PlotMaker section of the print dialog.

(I'm on my Mac right now so the attached image is different from what you will see, but it should do.)
