I too have a GSX140 with the color option and was quite dissapointed to
learn that Windows 3.0 has a real problem with color on dot matrix printers.
My problem was with paintbrush getting to print in color. Even though I've
informed Printer Setup that I have color, the image would only print in
Black and White.
I've contacted both Citizen and Microsoft Canada to which they both replied
Paintbrush only supports color on Postscript type devices.
