In 2 color printing, instead of one on lower end marketing materials, two ink colors are used, vs. four on higher-end commercially printed pieces. Typically, the inks used are Pantone ® colors, and are frequently used in a unique color to print a logo, design or symbol.

Re-create the PDF if you have the original source file from which the PDF was created. In the original program, open the file (like a word processor or a page layout program). Select File > Print, then select the option to save the file as a PDF. Open your new PDF file and try to print it again.
At the top of the PDF, click the File option, then click Print, and then click the Advanced button at the bottom of the window. Click the box next to "Print as an Image" to display a check mark, click the "OK" button to close the Advanced Options window, and then click the "OK" button to start printing the document.
