IDL's default background on all plots is black. This uses alot of ink! Is
there a way to make the background white? Any help appreciated.

Try this:
!P.Background = !D.N_Colors-1
!P.Color = 0
Just remember to switch these system variables back
to their defaults before you create PostScript output
or you will end up with white on white plots. :-)
You can find many other tips on using colors in IDL
on my web page.
Cheers,
David
