XY Graph Won't save to JPEG when Black and White...and run from TestStand.

I am creating an XY graph and manipulating the colors of the plots, background, etc.  I am saving this graph to JPEG using the Write JPEG File vi and after it is saved I import it inot a test report.  This works fine in color, but when I create a B&W plot, it won't save to JPEG.  Let me clarify:  It won't save to JPEG when I run the VI from TestStand.  It does save to JPEG when I run the VI as a stand alone application in LabVIEW. 
 
Problem:
Run VI from LabVIEW ~ Saves the JPEG in both Color and B&W.
Run VI from TestStand ~ Saves the JPEG in Color, but does not save the JPEG in B&W.    
 
Here is how I am making all the plots and background B&W in my code:
 
Change all Active Plots to Black using property node.
Change all Active Cursors to Black using property node.
Change the Plot BG colors (major/minor grids, etc) to lighter colors using property node. 
 
Does anybody have any suggestions? 
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Mike

A few questions: What version of LV are you using? How are you getting the control image that you are sending to the JPG? Third what exactly happens when you try to save the B/W image under TestStand? Error?
