When I plot files, arrowheads are not black as they are when other people in the office print (even the same file). I am using the same pentable as the rest of the crew, the only difference being that I am on v8I ss2 and the rest of the members are using an archaic version (v8 2004) and do not seem to have any issues. What would be a fix (or cause) of this issue?
We need a small sample file with the arrowheads. The .plt or .pltcfg you (they) are using and the pentable .tbl. Although the pentable is probably not the problem. It could be the .plt/.pltcfg you are using especially if they are using something different.

Are the arrow heads par of a dimension? If so, let me suggest you try checking "Explode dimensions" under "Pen Table Options..." when modifying the Pen Table in SS2.
Thank you both for your responses, I will be getting back to work tomorrow at 8 AM c.s.t. and will upload all the asked for material.
I will also check the explode dimensions in the pen table option as well.
Good morning, This is the file im working with, plot configs, and pentable hope this gets some data across. The entirety of the crew uses the same plot drivers and pentables. the only difference is the version of microstation. They redid their pen table about 8 months ago and havent had this console with a newer version of microstation running since then. I attempted the "explode dimensions" option within the pentable options and that did not help anything.

The section you have added to your Pen Table labeled as "Black" is causing an issue. I deleted that section. I could not figure out how it was searching or what it was searching for. Once deleted the arrow head was the same color as the leader (magenta). I added a new section called "dim" and searched for elements on the "A-Anno-Text" level and changed the fill color & color output to be color 0. Now the arrowhead, leader & text print black.
