I have ChemStation A.09.03 and need to darken the chromatograph. When it prints you can barely see it. Can it be adjusted some how?

I might look at your printer settings first. Is the entire report page too light? Or is it just the chromatogram?

Is this what you need ?

See above link, was my issue then.

Chromatography traces darker for printing on Laserjet printers:

Exit ChemStations, use Configuration Editor, Configure colors, to change Signal 1 from default blue (0 0 255) to dark purple (0 0 128), then Save the configuration. This will print darker on a black Laserjet printer, especially when the printer is set up to print 2 or 4 sheets to a page of paper.

This changes (in the Windows\win.ini file) the line in the [PCS,1] section that had been DEChrom1=0 0 255 to DEChrom1=0 0 128. So this change can also be made in the Windows\win.ini file directly, and saved, and would then become active next time the ChemStation is initialized.

Thank you for the information. I adjusted my printer to the most advanced setting and still no change. I will try to change the color next.
