Thanks, Paul.

I determined that in the specific page I am printing the black areas are brought on by having a non-scrolling text field with the following conditions:

location near left margin of card
show border = true
3D = true
line width =  2

The black fills the text field, but only for the first inch or so from the left margin.

Changing any of the above properties/conditions makes the black go away and printing becomes normal.

Unfortunately, I can't recreate this on a new card, so there must be something peculiar about other factors in my card. Do you still have the card that was printing black areas?

What might explain large areas of black appearing in print jobs?

Mark: I had the same problem with printing a card. On Dec. 4, Sarah made the suggestion below. It didn't solve my problem, but perhaps it will help you.

Paul, what happens if you set the backColor of the card to white before
printing?
