Hidden lines show light on PDF but not on printouts

I am having an issue with ProE5/Creo Elements.  When I export a print to a PDF I can see the hidden lines, they are a light brown or green but when printed to paper they are so faint they really cant be seen.  I have been through the whole pen table line thickness issue so I assumed it would be fixed there.  From reading the hidden lines are driven by pen3, is that correct?  Below is my current pen table

 

 

pen 1 thickness 0.003 in

pen 2 thickness 0.005 in; letter_color,magenta_color,half_tone_color

pen 4 thickness 0.010 in; drawing_color

pen 5 thickness 0.005 in; attention_color

pen 6 thickness 0.005 in; section_color

pen 7 thickness 0.002 in; dimmed_color

pen 8 thickness 0.007 in; highlite_color,edge_highlite_color

 

I then added a pen 3 to see if it whould help.  Do I need to restart Proe for it to read the new changes?  Do I need to redirect it to the file again once changes are made?  Any help appreciated.  Thanks
