Answer / Akshya Dixit

This issue might occur due to Excel's printing settings. Here's how you can resolve it:

1. Click on the 'Page Layout' tab.
2. Click on the 'Colorful' option under 'Print Colors'.
3. If it's not available, go to 'File > Options > Advanced', and under 'Display' section, check the box that says 'Use more colors in my workbook (colorful print).'
