How do I print a graph in black & white?

Hello all,

 

I've tried the Print VI Upon Completion and the Report Generation tools. Neither seem to be able to print a single or multiple graphs in black that is dark enough to read. For some reason, they all print in grey. Is there a way to print in B&W using native LabVIEW tools?

 

I built a piece of SW (see attached, requires IMAQ Vision) to use the IMAQ Vision tools to perform a color equalization, which works pretty well. This seems to be VAST overkill for such a simple task (not to mention complications with licensing for EXE versions). Is there an easier way to do this?

 

I used the tool above with the Report Gen tools. For some reason, no matter how I set the margins (standard report), the Report Gen tools always resize the image to leave >2 INCHES of dead space at the right (landscape view). How can I correct this? The min margin for left and right seems to be 0.25", although they don't seem to work for images.

 

Thanks kindly,

Derek

Hi Derek,

 

Have you tried changing the setting in Page Setup on this VI to affect the change?

Yes, I tried page setup. I was able to change to landscape, but not able to set to monochrome. The gray that LV uses by default is not acceptable for my app.

 

Any other ideas?
