White lines over aerial photo print black?

    I imported an aerial photo black and white TIFF image into AutoCAD and
    put it under a line drawing (light penset lines over the TIFF image).
    The goal is to have white lines over the aerial photo. However,
    whenever I print it out, the lines turn out black on top of the photo.
    What do I need to do to get the lines to be white and sit on top?

    Operating System: Windows 2000
    AutoCAD version: 2002
    Plotter: Synergix (not sure of the model off-hand)

    Thanks in advance,
    Pilar

    White by default always prints black in autocad (as you have found
    out). To print white we use a plot style table and define a style
    that has a custom color of white (rather than use object color).
