Part of what you're saying sounds like a printer setup problem, not a pen table problem.
If the printer names on all of your machines are not EXACTLY the same, even though they are actually the same printer, then your cad will go to the default printer for that machine (which appears to be something with 8-1/2x11 as its default setting). We've had that problem here. The cad file will remember what printer was selected and the settings for that file, but if it can't find the printer when being used by someone else on another machine (exact printer name), then it will go to the default.
The colored lines, instead of what it is supposed to be, sounds like the pen table. When you get the colored lines, go to the pen table (in that file, of course), and check to see if the table that is loaded is "dcadwin.dpf", instead of your office standard (assuming the office standard has a different name). ...You can see what table is loaded at the top of the pen table dialog box. If the table loaded isn't your office standard, then somehow a different table is being loaded. Double-check that all machines have the office standard, also with exactly the same name.
