Some internet texts are appearing in light gray fonts and hard to read & also too light for printing. How can I configure IE 7 to somehow override with black font? Is there any tools to change text to black fonts?
 
Go to tools, then internet options. On the bottom left, click on colors. Uncheck the "use windows colors" box and you can then choose what color you want for each purpose.

I followed the instruction, but there are no changes.
 
You're probably seeing the result of ClearType. In Internet Options, Advanced tab, look in the Multimedia section. If 'Always use ClearType...' is selected, uncheck it, apply, and close all instances of IE. Then, see if IE's fonts are more to your liking.
