Suddenly, with no apparent changes to any of them, or the application in which they have been created, the light gray fills are printing as a light green. Is it possible that a virus has caused this anomaly? Since my eyesight is so poor, I didn't even realize this had happened at first. I've discarded every other possible resolution of the problem. This transpired pretty much over night. Yesterday everything was OK. Today not so. I've restarted, but have not reinstalled anything yet.

When my printers (I have 3 of the things) get low on ink the grey-scale 
bits of images go all sorts of funny colours.
