What printer are you using? How many print cartridges does this printer
take?
Have you updated your printer drivers?

Ed- The document printed fine when I first created it as well as when I
printed the first one out yesterday.

That does not answer my questions.
Please answer my questions.

I am using an HP Photosmart 1000. It takes 2 cartridges. No, I haven't
updated my driver lately because the printer has been working fine, even 5
minutes before it stopped working properly.

And have you performed a head cleaning on your printer?

 

[binkeybike]

yes. in fact I did the first level cleaning and then the intermediate level.
I emailed the doc to a friend and he printed it out and the colors were
correct. so its not a damaged doc. so I guess it is something with my printer?
