Ah yes, so it's 1 and not 0 then. Could you post the contents your pnt file here? Mine is still set as you can see in the post up above, that means I print in all black.
Well, as for the mapkey including the interface quality change. First you need to put the following line into your config.pro:
content_favorites_page_options interface_quality
Then also add the following mapkey into your config.pro as well:
mapkey -pdf @MAPKEY_LABELExport drawing to PDF;\

Restart Creo, open up a drawing, and then just type pdf into the search field, you will see search result like on the following picture.
You can click onto the command to make it run from there, and also you can just add the icon anywhere on your ribbon via options menu.
Interface quality affects other filetypes as well, not just PDFs.
