[comp.sys.apple2] IIgs Color Graphics Print Problem

shatara@islnds.enet.dec.com (Chris Shatara) (09/10/90)

My daughter recently had a need to print out a fair amount of color 
graphics from our IIgs onto an ImageWriter II.  The graphics were printed 
from AWGS.  What we are finding is that we get random lines with no pixels 
printed.  That is a single row of pixels on the page are not printed.  This 
appears to happen only with graphics and seldom see it with TEXT (graphic 
text with fonts).  We never get this problem by running the IWII sell test 
with a color ribbon in it or printing graphics from other programs.  I've 
printed out several pages of color graphics (cataloging my Print Shop 
graphics) with Print Shop Lovers utility and no problem what so ever.

Has anyone ever experienced this or have any idea what might cause this.

We mostly print from the Page Layout module of AWGS with 

    the Claris print driver 
    condensed printing
    better color
    sometimes "darker" selected.
