Hi ap2:
When you are selecting to print the border through the FORMAT|CELLS|Borders option, technically you are not printing the grid line -- grid lines will either print all or none. The borders option allows you to print the borders around the selected cells.
Now to make the border line color lighter, you can choose the color option that goes along with the border selection -- try choosing a lighter color and try to match the selection so it prints to you liking.

HTH

Please post back if it works for you ... otherwise explain a little further and let us take it from there!
