Answer 1

2 1/2 yrs later, for others besides OP :) Right click your file in Project Explorer and choose 'Open with'; choose Text editor instead of Java/etc editor and print from there. Or alternatively, System Editor (if yours lets you check/uncheck 'print syntax highlighting'). Unless you can force your printer to use black & white instead of grayscale. I couldn't.

Answer 2

There is a quick and dirty answer... change theme prior to printing.
