Ick; I don't really want to dig through that right now (I'll save it for a 
rainy day), but I did have another idea; please note that I am neither 
asking for nor providing medical advice...

I now have a working inkjet (it took a while to configure it for my LAN) 
and it occurred to me that if I choose the RGB colours appropriately for 
each "time slot" then not only will they be intuitive on an inkjet (I 
envisage a sort of a light colour getting brighter then fading to dark in 
the form of coloured bars) but will also show up as an appropriate 
greyscale on the laser printer so that I can use either one.

Now, graphical arts is not exactly my forté, so what would be suitable RGB 
codes?  At worst I can always dig out a colour wheel and muck around a 
bit...

In other words, I am trying to map RGB colours into corresponding shades 
of grey if that makes sense.

Thanks.
