[net.unix-wizards] Imagen SET_MAGNIFICATION command not working?

	I can't seem to get the Imagen SET_MAGNIFICATION Impress command 
to work at all on the 8/300 printer.  Has anyone succeeded?  Specifically,
I'm using the BITMAP facility to download pictures into the Imagen and
it doesn't seem to like them above a certain magic size.  I tried just
drawing a vector to see if it was just the bitmap that wasn't getting
magnified, but no luck there either.  My next move (if I can't find a
better solution) will have to be reworking the algorithm as a series of
SET_PATH and DRAW_PATH commands, implementing my own magnification
scheme as well, 
but this will be a real pain in the <insert-favorite-body-part>!

S.O.S.
