Just noticed a quirk with Apple Notes.
If I actually try to print (simple text note, no embedded data), it prints in a light grey font instead of black on my monochrome laser printer.
Did some Googling, and apparently Apple in their “we know best and don’t tell you” sets the font to grey even though it looks black on the screen and the simplistic text formatting available in Apple Notes does not allow changing the font color to a true black.
Other than gyrations like moving the test into another app and formatting as desired, is there an easy solution?
