From: coderre%xenon.DEC@decwrl.arpa (Here I am in 54BC and all I want is a pickle--Zippy) A fried who is a LaserWriter hacker asked if there were more tuneup adjustments one could make to the LaserWriter than just origin positioning. Specifically, is it possible to adjust the vertical and horizontal resolutions to get more accuracy? He asked for a 10cm by 10cm square, and on the "short" paper dimension it was quite close, but on the long dimension it was .7mm short. It has remained pretty consistent over about 1000 pages. Is there a knob to turn inside the beast, or is the only way to send down some form of translation matrix, which suffers roundoff, etc???????????bc
