[comp.sys.mac] How do I get grey out of a LaserWriter?

jcocon%hazel.cs.clemson.edu@hubcap.clemson.edu (James C. O'Connor III, 2846) (11/21/89)

I have MacDraw II, LaserWriter 6.0, LaserWriter IINTX, and a polygon filled
with a light blue.  When I print it I get either black, or diagonal lines
about 8 pixels (screen size) apart.  Isn't 6.0 supposed to map colors into
simulated laserwriter gray shades?  Anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks,
Jim O'Connor

To map light blue to gray on a laser writer, you need driver version 6.0.
Do you have the color pixmap option checked? It must be on, otherwise
color is mapped to black very early in the printing process.
