2010 Windows changed my printing quality?

[merz]

I have a spreadsheet in Excel and have always printed the sheets in a 50% scale.

I just recently upgrade to Windows 2010, and now when I print the pages in the same 50% it changes the font to almost a blury, unclear text?

I tried change the print quality ion properties (print mode: High Quality, Bitmap Comp: Very High Quality) and nothing works! So very frustrating!!

Why would switching to Windows/Excel 2010 be doing this, and is there anything I can do to fix it?

I hate when MS Office does this to us!

I too have the same problem. My company puts out an operations overview book which is created in excel. A number of pages are created by taking pictures of other summary pages from different excel files which are too "busy" to integrate any other way than by just dropping a picture in. They come out blurry no matter how I tweak my settings.

I can test this with a picture of large text "Other Expense/(Income)" and the screen shots will look good in the excel file (400% zoom no difference in the typed text and the picture taken of the text (Picture taken via Copy as picture> using all three options plus a seperate program Snagit), but the printouts are all choppy.

Have you had any luck?
