I have a very simple C# WinForms project with a ReportViewer control docked in the center. I've created a local report (rdlc) file that contains an embedded color picture. If I compile and run this on my local machine, I can view the color image and print to my color printer and everything works fine.

If I move the application to a different machine with the same version of the reportviewer redistributable installed, I get different results. I still see the color image in the ReportViewer control, but when I try to print to the same color printer, my report comes out in black and white. I can export this to a PDF report and the color stays, so printer from Report>PDF>Printer works for color, just not straight to the printer.

Does anyone have any similar experiences?

Edit* Update -- Some elements on the report print in color, like blue font, but everything else is black and white.
