A friend of mine has Elements 6 and was trying to change from grayscale printing to color printing. I opened my Elements 6 and walked her through how to change it. But, her print set-up screens are different than mine. I told her to go to : File --> Page Setup -->Printer -->Properties --> Color and to change it there.

However, when she is looking at her Page Setup dialog box she says she does not have the "Printer" button. She has opened a properties dialog box but she doesn't have the color tab anywhere.

How can we both have Elements 6 but have different page set-up options? Is there more than one release of Elements 6?

What is her printer vs. your printer. I suspect that the printer driver affects those options.

Aha! I have an HP and she has a Dell - I didn't realize it would be different b/c of the printers.I thought that all the options were the same inside of Photoshop. So, I guess my question is now - if anyone has a Dell, how do you change from grayscale to color?

Amy,

Can you get her to do a screen shot of her printer option screen? Maybe post it on pixentral and we can take a look?
