LaserPrint
LaserPrint is a utility by A2S bundled with FullPaint that enhances the
resolution of FullPaint documents for printing on the LaserWriter.
Error While Printing
Clicking 'Print Final' generates either an 'Image mask' error or
Offending Command 0' within Postscript in the LaserWriter.
Correction - Use PRINT DRAFT instead of PRINT FINAL
In effect, PRINT FINAL is trying is trying to convert (smooth)
documents into 300 dpi that are already 150 dpi or 300 dpi.
PRINT FINAL is reserved for future versions of PostScript.
PRINT DRAFT bypasses smoothing routines.
+ Clearing the error
Turn off the LaserWriter and turn it back on
Printed Documents Not Smooth
Smoothing of documents for LaserPrint must be done by hand in Fat
Bits within FullPaint.
+ Correction
- After splitting into 4 or 16, go back to FullPaint
- Smooth all the documents in Fat Bits
Setting ruler untis to pixels and having Mouse Spot on screen
makes it easier to retain shapes that go from one document to
another.
- Return to LaserPrint
- Queue up documents as per the grid
- Click PRINT DRAFT
