SYMPTOMS
========

When you use a Hewlett-Packard (HP) 1200C DeskJet color printer with Windows NT,
text in a colored box does not print. If you change the color in the box to gray
scale, the text prints correctly.

WORKAROUND
==========

The only workaround for this problem is to print documents with text in a
colored box from Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups.

STATUS
======
