Re: [Digital BW] Re: QTR, GIMP-PRINT resolution

2003-10-31 by john eckenrode

hi mark
the printer is fine, its just using QTR in some
configurations has very slight banding. i figured the
problem was either a paper thickness issue, ie maybe i
should have set the letter to envelope rather than
plain paper, or it was an issue with GIMP-PRINT. GP
4.2.5 has known problems printing above 1440X720 so I
thought maybe when it was fixed to print 1440X1440 or
2880X1440 that that might solve the problem as well.
Otherwise my 2200 has been a complete dream.
right on
