Okay. I understood the document printed fine in black. I guess the UltraPrintPreviewDialog will not work as a means of properly viewing the report with sharp black text.

Thanks for the help and the code.

I saw,
the preview seems grey, but is not grey, it's correct!
Remember that the preview is done on a scaled version of the document on a LCD monitor ... and the blackness of text may be affected by severals factors (ambiental light, adjustments of monitor, ecc).

If you print, via the preview dialog or via Report.Print(), the printed doc is correct.

To enable printing from preview dlg remove the lline  98 (e.Cancel = true;)
To print directly fomr Report you must specific the printer name; you can get the name of default printer of the PC with this code:

System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings psets = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings();
string _currentPrinter = psets.PrinterName;

Ciao
