Perhaps this problem is unique to my particular arrangement, but:
When I print directly to my color laser from the Picaxe editor, the text is too light for me to read. I have started copying the code to Microsoft Word, selecting the whole program, and boldfacing it before printing. When I do that, everything becomes quite readable. The Picaxe Editor is the only program that requires me to do this in order to produce readable text on paper.
There is another program -- ExpressPCB -- which has a similar problem: The color (yellow) which denotes pcb edges is very readable on screen but totally useless when printed to paper. I find myself changing the yellow to blue before printing, then changing it back to yellow to continue working on screen.
My request is this: could we have two separate color & font setups so that a user could change the print setting to make the program more legible without changing the on-screen appearance?
