And being almost retired, I don't have a 'letterhead', it might generate more work. :( So I shrank that .png image to 1/4 page and sent lpr to print it, but I suspect I need to rotate it too. lpr is starting about in the middle of a blank sheet, & since I told it to use the 1440x1440 profile (-Plp2) it will take a while before I can see it. It appears to have auto-centered it on the page. Humm, looks decent, but the shrink left it fuzzy. And the 1440 mode doesn't use all nozzles. Try one at 360x, and that shows a nozzle pattern and is fast. At least I will have a reminder that it needs cleaned before I waste a $heet of good paper. Thanks for the idea, Tim. I believe it might help. Daily would use too much ink using that image though. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
