[cw-discuss] Windows printer question on codeweaver?

[Guy Loucks]

One item to try on printing, especially with a matrix / inkjet  
printer, remove the 'duplex / bi-directional printing'.

A large number of the inkjets / drivers pre-distorted the image to  
accommodate the lack of consistency in the drive mechanics. If the  
print head prints all in the same direction, even though it is much  
slower you are sometimes surprised with the improvement in quality.

Regs,

Guy
