I have obviously by mistake clicked on something. Today, when I print Number documents (some I have been using for over a decade) only the grid appears together with those cells with coloured figures or background. All other cells showing with black figures on white background actually print blank. Disaster; what have I done? What should i unclick ?
Saving the Numbers spreadsheet as a PDF again shows fine on Desktop but prints are defective as before.
A temporary workaround is to take screenshots of each page and then print. However some of my pages are 50% normal size in order to get onto an A4 sheet. These have printed ok for years, but a single A4 portrait screenshot gives too poor quality, and for moment I have had to do pairs of landscape A4 sheets of the previously single sheet in order to get more passable quality. But this doesn't solve the problem which I presume is "Numbers" rather than "Print" related ?
Sackcloth & ashes for me. Trevor you were right. Black cartridge full but not printing even a glimmer or smudge on any documents, be they Numbers ,Pages or whatever.
I was misled by the appearance of Grid cells on Numbers document print, and everything printed on Screenshots. Obviously the black there is actually off-black or some dark shade of grey thus generated by the colour cartridges not the plain black.
Phew. Answer was obvious ? Well unfortunately not to me. Panic over.
