Default How can I print white text successfully on black-coloured paper?

I have an assignment to print which I have used white text. I have brought
black A4 size pieces of paper to print on but my printer will not print any
text. Help please.

This would be funny in other contexts. You can't do it. Not like this,
anyway. Your printer doesn't have white ink! You need to print the *black*
onto white paper, printing nothing where you want the white text to appear.
Result tends to be rather messy though, and also expensive if you're paying
for your own toner.

Tip: rather than printing solid black, try printing 90-95 percent gray.
Depending on the printer, this usually gives a more consistent and
effectively 'black' result.
