Bill,
Posts like the above are often from people who didn't eat-sleep-
breathe PCs during the first 15 years of the "PC revolution". 
The problem's most likely in the printer driver you have, and it's
most likely not transferring screen colors to the correct grayscale
mapping when you want to print. IBM/Lexmark should have an updated
driver or a workaround, but don't count on it.
The quick+dirty solution is to do a screen capture into your
favorite graphics program, convert from color (if necessary) to B&W,
then print that image from the graphics program.
For example, I use CompupicPro (http://www.photodex.com) and
PaintShop Pro (http://www.jasc.com). In Paintshop, press Shift-C to
minimize the graphics program and turn capture ON. Then right-click
to define the start location of your image capture (the upper left
corner), drag the outline box to the lower right corner, and left-
click or press <Enter>. The capture (that is, your strategy table)
is now an image.
Or, as an alternative:
If your table is strictly formatted text and several pages long,
sometimes you can do a capture of highlighted text (Control-C) and
paste into your word processor (Control-V), then print that.
Advantages to either approach:
The graphic solution lets you scale the captured image
incrementally, like to best fit on a sheet of paper. You are not
limited to the format you were given by the original program, but
can (for example) print in landscape mode with wide, fat
characters. Or you can shrink 4 pages' worth of screen printouts
and tile them, if that helps.
But the wordprocessing approach lets you completely reformat the
data, provided it transfers through the Windows clipboard
successfully. This is best if you want to really pack information on
the fewest sheets possible, because you can pick tiny fonts, delete
lines and add your own comments to your personal chart(s). And a
fully-customized stategy chart is nice to print extra copies to give
to acquaintances, both new and old.
